I guess I was not very clear in my first posting. I was trying to keep it short. But I was really thinking about the lower grades. High schools already have ASL as a FOREIGN language. (AMERICAN sign language is foreign?) Anyway, if little kids started to learn it along with english, by the time they got to the higher grades, they would have a basic vocabulary at least to be able to communicte with the mainstreamed Deaf kids.???? I was hoping that it would also irradicate some of the misconceptions about Deaf people and break down some barriers if little kids were exposed to it in the lower grades. I wish I would have been.
