I'll use the sign language during circle time (days of the week, numbers…). I'd also like to use it for basic needs like bathroom, water , yes and no. I'll also encourage the kids to sign when we are walking in the hallway to avoid disturbing the other classes.

1.I will add some ASL to the circle time first, like: colors, animal, hello/goodbye song.
2. I will practice some table manners ASL, like: please, more, thank you and apply it to the meal time.
3. I will add feelings ASL to the program, it will offer kids another way to express themselves.

One way I could incorporate sign language into my school program is in a daily song we sing at our morning meeting called “Days of the Week” we could easily add in all the days of the week signs as the children sing to help them learn.

A second way would be using a sign for simple yes/no questions when at a group lesson or when I am preoccupied talking to an adult, this would allow everyone to stay on task while also addressing the child’s need at that time.

Finally, a third way I’d like to implement sign language into our class is through practicing the number signs during our daily counting. We add one number every day so could easily incorporate learning the corresponding sign for that number as well.

There are many ways I can incorporate sign language in my classroom, even if they are just the basic signs. The most useful for Pre-K kids is learning their colors, singing songs during circle, counting in sign, and learning about the animals. Using sign during circle to get the kids attention is the best way so you don't disturb the rest of the children's learning.

Three ways to use sign language in the classroom are:

2) The Hello and Good bye songs to start and end each day

3) Answering yes or no questions.

I can incorporate ASL into my day to day classroom by counting to 10 in sign language, as well as the abc's, and colors during cirlce. I can also sign "more" and "finished" during lunch time. Lastly, I can use sign language while playing on the floor with the children by showing them the animal signs, or colors, or whatever object toy they are playing with.

As a teacher in a classroom of two-year-olds, it's important to recognize that not all of my little ones are at the same stage of their language development. While I have several who are quite verbal and can carry on a short conversation, I also have quite a few who have very few words or do not feel comfortable using their voice yet. Despite the differences in their language development, they do share similar interests, which is how I plan on implementing more signing into our class. Singing our ABC's is very popular right now, and I plan on signing the alphabet as we sing the song. I think that this will help not only teach everyone the alphabet song, but will help those who maybe are a bit more advanced distinguish each individual letter and really feel it out rather than squishing them together to become "ayebeeseedee". After watching the ABC You Later song and video I decided it was perfect for my class. I plan on learning it right away so we can sing it together during circle time. Taking the time to incorporate sign language throughout the classroom's daily activities will be great too. By including the signs for the colors we're using for an art project as we talk about our work, or adding in animal signs to the stories we read, bit by bit the class will expand their English and ASL vocabulary.

The "Hello" and "Good morning" songs were great examples of this. Teaching color recognition through signing games is another idea that I can put into practice in my classroom.

Sign can be used in the classroom to quietly ask and answer a question. You can practice the ABC's verbally and signing at the same time. You can use the hello/goodbye song as well as other simple signing songs. You can use basic sign when talking throughout the day, that way the children become aware of the signs, and they can convey messages without disrupting everyone in future times.

I will be thinking more on it -in the classroom- to see where other opportunities arise for good times to use or incorporate sign-language. I think a fun one will be (1) Songs. Helpful to use the Yes-No- Bathroom- (2) General Needs and Feelings. Especially to avoid extra noise in the classroom. It seems like it would save physical /mental energy too. (3) Incorporate with -Letter of the Week! Book or theme on the Animal of Week. Its Color too.

I think what I am most excited for, is to incorporate them for emotions, so a child can let me know how they are feeling without using their words. Another way I would like to use them is for bathroom, water, etc breaks so that it doesn't interrupt the flow of the class, like in the video, when one kid asks it usually ends up in a plethora of other kids asking, so signing helps reduce that. And finally, I would like to incorporate signing for circle time. Signing the days of the week, numbers, letters, etc would be a fun way to mix up each lesson.
