Kids LOVE to sign – it’s like their own secret language! Children in this age group are natural signers – they love to learn with their hands. The kinesthetic activity helps them to remember important concepts and learn new words! This is especially important when learning sight words! If kids can pick those words out of a passage they will be able to decode what the rest of the text is about! I love to teach sight words like they are clues and learners are the detectives, looking for those clues! In Mindful Signs classes, we use both signing and movement to help keep students physically engaged so they can increase their vocabulary, improve their fine-motor skills and hand-eye coordination! Best of all, we have fun! Mindful Signs classes incorporate both songs and games to reinforce the signs and words we learn. Our classes will follow a similar routine: we will open the class with a song and greetings. Each class will start with the ABCs, 123s and signing our name! I will ask the students for any sight words they are finding extra challenging and want to practice. And then we will practice the words for the day. We will work on about 5-7 words per class and practice using them in sentences or other contexts!
