Intro to ASL

-
Hello to anyone that is reading this!! I'm Jennifer and right now you are on my blog which I will post and new blog every Friday of the week. If you are wondering what this is about, I'm about to tell you. This blog is for a project in my 8th grade language arts class where we are using each Friday as a new day to learn and grow on a topic we chose to learn on. Now, you might be wondering what I chose, right? Well, I chose to learn sign language because I saw someone at my church one day translating a song with sign language for people who were deaf. When I saw how much passion she for it, it inspired me very very much and made to do the same. So now here I am, learning sign language little by little. Hope you enjoy my blog!!!

So , for this last learning blog which I used last Friday and continuing this week to learn how to sign common phrases and greetings, common questions and feelings. These were pretty easy and not that hard. [These were way better that learning the colors which were so difficult >< ] Except for t he common phrases were a little bit difficult because they were different and required a more difficult motion than usually required. I also forgot to mention that my main goal out of this project was to be able to learn enough ASL to be able to start a super SIMPLE conversation to someone who is deaf. Also ASL had a different s...

I also forgot to upload this so...... here it is!!! These are the ASL numbers (in case you don't know what ASL stands for, it stands for American Sign Language) which I did a while back didn't notice that I didn't upload it yet. There is also a number 10 for sign language but it got cut of sadly. Also I have completed the ASL nature and weather which was not that hard to be honest and took little time to memorize. Most of the hand motions for it was very representative of the meaning of that motion, so learning it wasn't that hard but it sure is exciting to learn more every week. :) <Also I made a poll on the top of the page so please go and vote on it. Thanks!!>
