Sign Language

Today, we wrote our names on a paper and also cut out sign language that represented our letters and put them under our name.

Sam taught the rest of our class how to do the signs.

According to an article we read, many people make up a sign specific to their name instead of having to do the letters everytime they say their name.

Those of us who are verbal think it would be challenging to be unable to speak and to have to do sign language.  However, we realize those who are non-verbal and use sign language don't even have to think about it because Sign is their first language.  However, as verbal speakers, we think it would be hard to learn and use regularly.

Also, according to the article, you could use a sign that represents your personality such as giggly or sunshine.

We had fun!
