<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I'm sure you are familiar by now but I take each moment as a moment to teach Little Fingers (and now Tiny Fingers) sign language! Last weekend we were raking leaves. So while she was jumping in the LEAF PILE I taught her the sign for LEAF PILE! Best part now is now she teaches Teeny Fingers. </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">As an SLP, one of my major goals is to improve a child’s ability to communicate through functional means, which is not only through verbal communication. Functional communication allows children to get their messages across using spoken words, printed words, gestures, sign language or through accessing a communication device. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">I incorporate sign language every day with my students, whether they are in Early Intervention, preschool, or are school age. Signs are wonderful to use as visual cues to assist students in staying on task, help with following directions, requesting and when questioning students during activities. They also help build vocabulary in nonverbal or minimally verbal children, as well as provide cues to assist in recall of newly learned vocabulary in older children. Children learn best when multiple senses are engaged and experiencing life. By adding sign language to a child’s communication options, you are giving them the opportunity to hear the word (when it is spoken), see the word (when watching it spoken, as well as signed) and perform the word by signing it. This multi-sensory form of communication helps children acquire vocabulary more quickly and efficiently.
One of my Life Skills students is working with preschool children, and she is interested in teaching them how to communicate through sign language, so we practice once weekly. When going into homes for Early Intervention, I bring articles about the benefits of sign language. <a href="http://www.unitedwayuc.org/welcomebaby/playgroups/L16%20-%20Baby%20Sign%20Language/L16.pdf">Here is one</a> handout from United Way.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">This next one is from Super Duper’s Handy Handouts:</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Finally, <a href="http://www.signingtime.com/dictionary">here is a link</a> to a page with more than 90 common signs for children that I share with parents to assist in carryover. What is wonderful about this site is that each sign has its own video, and the instructor explains what to do while she signs: </span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Most parents are receptive to having their children learn sign. It is amazing to see how easily they pick up sign. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"> I had the opportunity to use the March ASL packet from Hear My Hands last month (<a href="http://hearmyhandsasl.blogspot.com/2013/03/a-fun-way-to-learn-sign-language-st.html">click here</a>). Here is a collage with some of the included activities:
I have to say that I love Signing Simon (that adorable boy in the blue shirt)! </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"> <img src="webkit-fake-url://5942E09B-7DD3-4660-91B8-8CF781B112F5/application.pdf" /></span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"> The graphics are wonderful and clear, and the packet encompassed vocabulary that I used throughout the month of March. I loved that there were receptive and expressive language tasks. By the end of the month, my students were able to identify and use most of the signs from the packet. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"> Not only do I teach my students sign, but I also teach basic signs to their teachers. The teachers can then incorporate the signs as visual cues to gain attention, and use as “secret” signals to my students. My students love these signals, because it helps them focus, and provides a nonverbal cue that does not call attention to them.
I hope you will try to incorporate some sign language into your speech sessions. It is something different to do, and fun to learn for everyone!

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">Yesterday we did the sign for MUSIC (<a href="http://hearmyhandsasl.blogspot.com/2013/04/sign-music-little-fingers-next-new-sign.html">click here</a>) ...</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: x-large;">Now we talk about FOUR great ways to incorporate sign language with MUSIC</span><br />
<ul>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif;">Sing songs before, during, and after familiar everyday routine </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif;">such as diapering, toileting, eating,
sleeping, waking, bathing, and</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif;"><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>cleaning up.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Create your own songs or borrow from popular </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif;">CD’s.</span></span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Add signs to favorite songs such as "Happy and You Know It" (emotions), "Old MacDonald" (animals), and so on ...</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Play instruments and learn GO, STOP, LOUD, SOFT, FAST, SLOW</span></li>
<li><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #003366; font-family: 'Tw Cen MT Condensed', sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Play the 'freeze' (or 'Red Light') game while music plays in the background and encourage movement and signs like DANCE, JUMP, RUN, WALK, and then of course STOP and GO for the music.</span></span></li>
</ul>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #073763; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">Signing with music can be lots of fun</span><br />

Little Fingers' newest sign<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Yesterday (on Easter), Little Fingers received a Duck stuffed animal. She knew the word 'duck,' which I accredit all of her books, but my husband and I were just talking about how we need to keep up with her signs as we started slacking with the new baby here the past 4 weeks. We've been a little pre-occupied you could say! So I looked at it as the perfect opportunity, signed DUCK and Ta-Da! She signed DUCK and remembered the sign a few minutes later! Score! Another sign down :)</span><br />
