    Explaining ASL

    I just moved to Colorado and started a job at a Preschool/Pre-K/Daycare. I've been teaching sign language through Signing Time! DVDs to the Pre-Kers. Some of the kids LOVE Signing Time!, some are ok with it and a few don't like watching it. They ALL will sign "eat please" at snack time and will...

    What did you learn today? Part II

    I've known for a long time that I talk in my sleep when I go to bed really tired. My fiance has informed me that the past few days I've started signing in my sleep :giggle:

    Mom of 3month old with hearing loss

    I believe that the life your son will have will be based on you and your husband. To your son, being deaf...is normal. He's not missing out on anything, until people try and bring him or you down with "how can he live without hearing music, or the ocean, or voices" etc. He'll be able to "hear"...

    Walking away from ASL

    Thanks Shel, I thought it was the right thing. Again its not like I'm teaching her not to talk, she picked that up on her own. Everything I've learned is by doing it on my own. Either books, DVDs, or watching the forums. Especially what you and Jillio write :giggle: but lately I've just wanted...

    Walking away from ASL

    I dont know if its more I get one response from one parent and a completely different one from another parent. And I can see why if she's not in a deaf enviroment she'll quite signing as time goes on. They wanted her second language to be ASL, but only one parent is going to put in the effort...

    Walking away from ASL

    First ASL class to re-learn my native language

    Maybe! As for me, I'm a 23yr old Hearie so I can kind of relate to that deer in headlight look :shock: But I'm sure as they learn to sign more and become more comfortable in their signing ability and learn to not talk while signing...then maybe they'll ease up. You'll have to let us know! But...

    First ASL class to re-learn my native language

    Another way of looking at it is, if the students wanted to be disrespectful or it was nothing but a joke for them, I'd hardly think they would of waited for the professor to leave. Just a thought :hmm:

    Hi! Learning ASL & Need Questions Answered About Deaf Culture

    Do not use your voice :D especially when signing. There's a book called "For Hearing People Only". Theres a thread here on the board about it, from the few clips of the book I got to read it sounds like a good book to add to your library. It has FAQ that the hearing ask the deaf and info on...

    Fountain Lady may sue the mall

    Kind of Ironic that someone just so happened to be filming her the entire time of her falling into the fountain? She needs a way to prove she fell in, well here you go. Seems to me a bit of a set up
