American Sign Language
American Sign Language - High School Intermediate
ASL
is a beautiful, expressive, physical language used by over a million Americans
every day to communicate with family, friends, schoolmates and
co-workers. I love sharing this skill with children - something they can
use in their future lives. I have been teaching ASL to homeschoolers for over
20 years.

Class Description
This
intermediate level high school ASL class is open to all high school students, although this class does not meet A-G requirements for high school foreign
language credit. This is the second semester of a year-long course but new
students are welcome to join!
We meet
Tuesday mornings at 10:00 am for 90 minutes. We will study vocabulary, ASL syntax,
and Deaf culture in depth. This will include practicing conversational skills and following current
events that affect the Deaf community.
Students will generate work samples that can be submitted to your charter schools, if needed.
Ideally, students will have some previous experience with ASL, manual alphabet, and basic vocabulary, but this is not required.
