Waving…


I would be willing to share my video with anyone who would like to view it. I created the video for me to use so I would not have to check out all of the resources from the library again. Since the video talks about the benefits of sign language I discovered through reading studies, I think that new moms would be interested in hearing this information. With my experiences as a new mom, I am always searching for advice and trying to verify everything that I do. I guess I want to make sure that what I am doing will not “mess up” my kid. I feel confident that I will use this video next Spring when my son is about 7-8 months old.

Hi Brooke,
Thought your idea for your project was wonderful. I am the father of four children and know exactly what you mean when you say "mess up my kid." I believe I've lost count of how many times I've said that phrase aloud. Anyway, your blog caught my attention because two of my children have deaf students in their school classrooms. One is in kindergarten and the other is in the fourth grade. Both of them have full-time interpreters in the classroom. As a result my children are beginning to pick up on sign language and have even been taught the alphabet by the instructor. It has made them more aware of others and also forces them to concentrate visually instead of always using their auditory senses. I would be interested in viewing the video and the benefits of sign language. Great work.
