Introduction to Sign Language

In this class we will learn the alphabet, colors and a few animal signs.  No previous knowledge is required so come ready to learn! Sign language is a second language for me since I have a brother who is deaf. I have been signing for over 35 years. I am a certified elementary school teacher and have taught on the online platform for over a year now.  This class will be engaging, fun and exciting.  It is perfect for the young learner! I teach by the "I do, We do, You do" model.  I will use flashcards and props to help the learner to more readily grasp the sign we are learning.  My teaching style is to be patient with children but to also be enthusiastic! Children learn at their own pace and I feel very equipped to maintain a child's attention, make learning fun and encourage them as they try new things. This class will be full of interactions as that is exactly what sign language is.  I grew up with a brother who is deaf so this culture is second nature to me as is sign language.  My own three children are learning it as well!
