Lenguaje de señas americano I - Campamento de verano | De 11 a 16 años

Take on a new Summer hobby and learn American Sign Language with me!
In this flex class, students will watch weekly lessons, record signs and phrases, receive feedback, and practice receptive skills by watching a "no-voice" video of the instructor.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How is this class conducted:
Each week, the instructor will post three assignments: a full video lesson, a practice assignment, and a receptive video. The assignments can all be done at the convenience of your schedule though I do encourage students to do them weekly to not get behind.
