What to do with “Animals” Ideas and Suggestions Come up with a story about an animal or animals, real or made up Instead of focusing on how you would *say* it in English, think of how you could “act it out” in ASL. Sometimes “becoming” the animal is easiest ASL is VISUAL. Describe what your animal(s) look like and how they move by using your own body Act out how the animal(s) interact

“Receptive Practice: Descriptions” 1.Draw what I describe 2.Be aware of signer’s (my) perspective 3.Show what color is indicated

ASL Syntax 1.Subject-Verb-Object (SVO): “MOTHER LOVE FATHER” 2.O-S-V: “FATHER (topic), MOTHER LOVE” 3.Topic/Comment: “FATHER, MOTHER LOVE” 4.Rhetorical: “MOTHER LOVES WHO? FATHER”

Practice Sentences Pick 8 statements or questions from the list provided (you can alter them as suitable). Write them in your INB in ENGLISH. SKIP appropriate lines and spaces to translate your sentences into proper ASL syntax. (Students should pick a partner and stand across the room from each other so they aren’t tempted to talk. Have them interview 2 different classmates)

Remember 1.“Fake it ‘til you make it!” Look confident and practice confidence so you will become confident. 2.Accept constructive criticism from others – you will grow a lot that way. Don’t take it as a personal attack. 3.Give others honest but helpful feedback in a tactful way (with respect and kindness… think of how you’d want to hear feedback) 4.Ask each other for help! 5.Introduce new signs with fingerspelling
