This picture displays me using www.lifeprint.com to learn sign language. During this week, I

focused on “clothing” vocabulary. In this picture, I am practicing the sign

for “socks”.

By using www.lifeprint.com, this week I focused on “animal” vocabulary words. This picture shows me practicing the

sign for “bird”.

During this week, I began to use the vocabulary I had learned to create

sentences. In this picture, I am signing “What is your favorite animal?”

Today, I taught sign language to a student who was extremely

interested in the language. This picture displays me teaching the sign

for “brother” to Ashley Bridges.

In this picture, I am teaching Ashley the sign for “interesting.” Later on, I taught Ashley to use the word in a simple sentence.

When I asked Ashley what she was interested in learning to sign, she immediately said “food”. In this

picture, I am teaching Ashley the sign for “hamburger”.

This picture was taken during the time I was teaching Ashley to sign

personal statements. In this picture, I am teaching Ashley to

sign “My name is Ashley.”

Today, I went on a shopping trip to Michaels to get some ideas for a visual

display. As soon as I saw this shiny silver scrapbook, I knew I wanted to create a scrapbook to document the

lessons I gave Ashley.

When I wasn’t learning new signs or teaching sign language to Ashley, I practiced signing

conversations to my mom. Although my mom didn’t know sign language, she was

extremely supportive by simply sitting down and watching me sign to her. In this picture, I am signing “my name is Maida” to my mom.

This picture displays me having a simple conversation with my mom in sign language. In this picture, I am signing “how are you?” to my

mom. Since my mom didn’t know sign language, whenever I felt that I needed to

practice sign language with someone, I would speak and sign a question to my mom and she

would speak her reply.

Since my project facilitator was very busy with work and her family, it became quite difficult to meet up with her sometimes. Nevertheless, we

stayed in contact through social networking sites. In this picture, I am emailing my project facilitator, Andy, about some questions I had

about some signs that I had learned.

In this picture, I am emailing Andy to see if she has any suggestions about what my

visual displays can be. Since I am not very artistic, I asked Andy for some advice on

what possibilities I had for a visual display that didn’t consist of drawing or painting.
