Sign with Me the ABCs

Teaching sign language can enhance education for all children. Sign with Me the ABCs gives early childhood professionals and families simple directions on how to use signs and benefits of using modified American Sign Language (ASL) with preschoolers. Teaching young children modified ASL can help develop emerging literacy skills, enhance story times, support young children learning English as a second language, and ease frustrations for nonverbal communicators. The front of each card includes a colorful illustration and a short description of how to make the sign. The back of each card explains when to use the sign and how doing so will help children develop.
