I would like to ask your help, here on the SignWriting List, if you have the time.... We have several new teachers who are trying to use SignWriting this Fall...for example, Cecilia Flood in Albuquerque, New Mexico, will be teaching with the "Learn To Read ASL in SW series" (the advanced materials), like you did last Spring. And then there are three new projects - one in Germany, and one in Peru, and one in Troy, New York - so the question is - do you have any advice for new teachers? How did you start with your students?.... Valerie ;-) |
