Homework
Purpose: We learn to sign songs to help develop fluency of movement. Some of these songs are children’s songs, holiday songs or random choices that use vocabulary that will be useful to know.
Instructions: Look up the vocabulary in the dictionary and practice with a partner. We will review as a class. Ask for help on movement and placement of the sign if you do not understand the dictionary or can’t find the concept.
