In addition to being one of our classmate’s birthdays yesterday… (HBD!!).. I found out late in the day that it was also National ASL Day! Watch this video to practice some phrases you might already know or to learn some new ones!
I have been following Signed With Heart on social media for a few months and she has a multitude of clear videos to learn a few signs at a time, if you would like to learn more.
I sent out an email to parents and students yesterday with three surveys. In case you missed it, I am including the links to them here. Please only answer the scheduling surveys once per student, and please remember to include the student’s name in Question 1 of the survey so I can know who to schedule when. Thank you so much!
- Scheduling a regular time for me to call for a weekly check-in. I would like to know when in the day/week might work best for me to call to check in with students one-on-one.

We are scheduling appointments for students to pick up their belongings and new school work while maintaining proper social distancing. I will send out a schedule, after everyone has completed this survey, and students can pick up their supplies one at a time from the North-side door by our classroom.

- A class parent has generously offered to share her knowledge on COVID-19, as a nurse in ER. Since there is so much information going around it can be overwhelming, she offered to do a video call Q&A to answer any students’ or parents’ questions. This survey is to gather questions in advance of the Q&A so that she can prepare. When we set a time, I will send out a video call invitation to students, and parents are welcome to join in as well.

Enjoy the rest of your week!
I did all the surveys
Wahoo! Thanks Jenica!
Thank you for the survey. It’s done.
Knowing the sign language is really helpful all times and now as we are practising social distancing i feel the sign language in the best way to communicate with each other by spreading less germs. Thank you for the video Ms Anderson. Will try to participate more.
Thank you for completing the surveys, and for all of your participation!
I am glad you are enjoying learning sign language. I am enjoying learning too!
