Simple Signing with Young Children - A Guide for Infant, Toddler, and Preschool Teachers
|
|
Written for teachers of hearing children from birth to age six, Simple Signing is the perfect introduction to learning through American Sign Language. Organized by age, there are chapters for infants, toddlers, and preschool children, with age-appropriate signs. The chapter written for teachers of infants focuses on using beginning signs as a bridge to language, while the chapter for teachers of toddlers focuses on signs that promote expression, enrich vocabulary, and teach social skills. The chapter for teachers of preschoolers emphasizes using signs to enhance emergent literacy skills. Each sign is illustrated with a caption and one or more photos of a young child or adult demonstrating the sign, so the signs are easy to understand and execute. Instructions for putting signs together into simple sentences are also included. The pictorial index of signs helps you find exactly what you need quickly and easily. Simple Signing shows teachers just how easy and valuable it can be to incorporate sign language into daily activities. • Written by Carol Garboden Murray, MS. Paperback, 204 pages, 2007.
