In this class, we will start with the basics of fingerspelling and move into signing words and sentences, cover some Deaf culture concepts, facial expressions and gestures associated with the language, as well as the difference between ASL and signed English. With any luck, we will be able to sign a song by the end of the year. (The song will probably in Signed English instead of ASL.)

Homework:
