Wanting to better express yourself in sign language? This class dives deeper into ASL with conversation advice, vocabulary, and lots of active practice. The class is in full immersion to better equip students for conversing with deaf people. Students from Jennifer Zollo's ASL class are encouraged to join this class to advance their ASL skills!
Requirements:
Students must know basic signs and the alphabet in order to gain the most from the class.
This fun class for young learners will help bridge the gap between the Hearing and Deaf community and will give students a head start for future ASL classes which are offered here at FPHRC. Each week they will learn new signs like the alphabet, finger spelling, seasons and holidays, weather and animals and our final weeks we'll be signing to familiar worship songs! The class will have plenty of games to keep the learning fun and engaging!
Note: This class will be taught by a student teacher.
Requirements:
A notebook and writing instrument is recommended for writing down the words we're learning in each class but not required. I will provide a list of words after each class and post to our Slack channel.
