WEEK 2

ASL 1101-001 &002 Agenda
* ABC's
• Season signs (winter, fall, summer, spring)
• Meeting our classmates (fingerspelling receptively and expressively)
• Understanding ASL does not use articles (is, was, were, are, etc)
• WHQ questions require our eyebrows to be downward and we lean slightly forward
All Class Activity
• What is your name?
o NAME YOU? (Eyebrows down)
• My name is Monica
o MY NAME M-O-N-I-C-A
• It is nice to meet you.
o NICE MEET-YOU
Feedback from All Class Activity
• Be aware of bouncing when fingerspelling, hold hand still
• Do not hold hand high
• The sign MEET requires that you palms touch
• Facial grammar for WHQ is lacking, you must have your eyebrows downward
• Look at their face not their hand (this takes practice)
• Do not mouth everything
• See your name as a unit not individual letters this will help you not to bounce
• If you cannot read their fingerspelling do it with them
• Relax your hand
