Learn the ASL alphabet with fun activities and get LOTS of hands-on experience fingerspelling in American Sign Language.
IN THIS COURSE, you’re going to first learn the ASL alphabet with lots of review and fun activities. Next, you’ll learn the five (5) fingerspelling rules and fingerspell common letter combinations, acronyms, and single words up to eight (8) letters in length. After that, you’ll learn how to correctly fingerspell multiple words. You’ll get LOTS of practice fingerspelling and understanding celebrity names, famous places, vehicles, and popular movies.
NEXT, you’ll get hands-on experience with real world fingerspelling skills. You’ll learn to sign complete sentences that mix fingerspelling and vocabulary signs. We’ll teach you handshape, hand position, and hand movement for each vocabulary sign with lots of repetition and practice.
THROUGHOUT the course, there is LOTS of review and testing. We do review in two parts: 1) signing and 2) understanding (2 speeds). To make the learning process smoother, the understanding review has two speeds: slow and fast. As you become comfortable with the slower speed, you can level up to the faster speed.
*** This course is designed to INCLUDE complete beginners without any sign language experience.
