THE EVERYTHING SIGN LANGUAGE BOOK SECOND EDITION Dear Reader As the - photo 1

THE
EVERYTHING
SIGN LANGUAGE
BOOK
SECOND EDITION

Dear Reader,

As the parent of a son who was bor n profoundly deaf, I quickly realized how impor tant it was for my son to communicate with those who were involved in his daily world. I also realized, after exploring a number of other methods, that signing was the most effective way for David to communicate. American Sign Language allowed him to express his needs and to share what was on his mind with other people. As I began my early journey into the world of sign language, instructional guides were limited. Books were difficult to understand and imitate, leaving many questions unanswered in acquiring this valuable mode of communication. Therefore, Ive tried to make The Everything Sign Language Book, 2nd Edition user-friendly, and it is my hope you will find this book offers an easy and pleasant learning journey into the wonderful world of sign language.

Over the pa st twenty-eight years, I have developed and taught courses Language and I have ser vices in American Sign presented an array of in-can open door s and students and effort in learning this language a joy to watch seen how enthusiasm for all. It has been improved communication while they learn new and lead to acquire a new way to communicate of all ages American Sign Language is a beautiful language that can communicate things about themselves.

American Sign Language is a beautiful language that can communicatewhat is in your mind and in your heart. My wish for you is to learn from thisbook, enjoy what you learn, and, most importantly, use what you learn.

Sincerely,

The Everything Sign Language Book American Sign Language Made Easy All new photos - image 2

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I wish to express my appreciation to the wonderful staff of Massasoit College for their encouragement and support in writing the second edition of The Everything Sign Language Book. In addition, my thanks to my kind friends, Genie and the staff of Whitman Hanson Regional School District, who provided me with the faith that the first edition would actually become a reality. I send forth sincere gratitude to my mentor, Beth, for the many years she provided me with guidelines to writing and for her friendship. My sincerest gratitude to all of my past and present students from Massasoit College, the vast number of Early Educators, the caring parents, and the countless participants of the American Sign Language (ASL) courses, in-services, and workshops. These students and participants have provided me with endless resources to write a more concise second edition. My greatest appreciation is given to my friend and sister who, once again, burned the midnight oil with me, held my hand, and spent hours every weekend typing. Finally, I am sending my eternal, loving appreciation to my husband for his endless support and his constant unconditional love.
