St. James ASL Class

Hello and welcome! We kicked off the Spring Session with most students returning from Fall, and we welcomed three new students to our class! This past week we did some review to catch up the newbies. We covered the manual alphabet, basic introductions, greetings, and personal identity. Giving and receiving this kind of information is very important in Deaf culture. We played a class favourite, 4 Corners, to practice some of the vocab. We also played a couple other fun ones that don’t involve any signing, but connects the students to Deaf culture. New students got folders and ticket bags, and the returning students took this opportunity to give theirs a fresh look. Unfortunately, I didn’t get a chance to snap any new photos this week. We were having too much fun learning and playing and celebrating a birthday. But please enjoy one of my favourite pictures from the Fall Session. :) I’m having a wonderful time in class and am looking forward to the rest of the Spring Session! Thanks for stopping by! _\,,/ Teacher Desmona
