Signing at School, a good tool for both teachers & students
I purchased this book to use as a text for my daughter to learn sign as her foreign language. The illustrations are very easily understood, and as the title suggests, pertains to the average school day.

Lovely book
I bought this book after hearing about it from friends and it certainly lives up to the praise. Both my kids love it and it's very matter of fact about our bodies and how we are different and the same.

Helpful tool for teaching sign language to a child
I am a license Interpreter and also the child of Deaf Adults (CODA). I have many sign language dictionaries but was looking for something that I could use with my son, who is two, that would be visual, sturdy and not be Signed English. This book fits all of my criteria. While some of the signs are a little "English" this book is a wonderful resource to teach my child sign. When learning or ...

Confirming What We Know & Making It Better
We just finished a Book Study @ school using this book! We all thought her suggestions were great (especially the one about not ONLY using running records & DRA levels to "label" readers) but using individual conferencing also. Mini Lesson Ideas abound! Specifics are included throughout! A must-have in your personal/professional library for ANY Elementary School Reading Teacher!

S. Harold Collins

Garlic Press, 1994

Introduces some basics in a fun way.
While the nursery rhymes "signed" here may not be your most favorite from childhood, they work well for teaching a "hearing" child some basic signs in a fun way. Solomon Grundy gives the days of the week, 30 Days Has September gives the names of the months, Buckle My Shoe gives numbers up to twenty, Crooked Sixpence is fun with lots of repetition to give confidence, and Mother Goose is just for ...

Teach Your Child How To Read
As a teacher, too often I see too much emphasis on teaching reading by just 'saying the words' on the page and no understanding of what they mean. This is a great book putting emphasis on comprehension which is what reading is all about. Two great books mentioned above that do the same ...are great literature books...stories that children really enjoy:Life's Little Lessons: An Inch-By-Inch Tale ...

Learned braille in a day - keep in mind that it is for beginners
This book is great for beginners and as the title says for people that can see. I got this book because I was intrigued by the braille that you see on elevators and everything. I really like learning languages and of course the basics is learning the alphabet. This book is great in helping you to do that. I went through the exercises and made flash cards of braille letters. After only a day, ...

Exellent practice book
I love this advanced fractions workbook! My biggest complaint with other workbooks and texts is not enough practice problems, however, this book is filled with problems to solve. There is a beginning assessment test and a final assessment test. The workbook has a total of 5 sections and each section includes a diagnostic test as well. Beware there are no "how-to" instructions simply practice ...

Garlic Press, 2001

Beautiful book, great signs, wonderful for all ages
This book is wonderful. It is larger than I expected (9 x 7 in.) and the pages are full of very colorful images accompanied by a clear illustration depicting each animal's sign. The book contains 16 pages and those pages are packed with images and signs - one for every letter of the alphabet. A very inexpensive way to add to your signing library. I highly recommend this book.
