Events in October

Beginners Baby Sign Language Class
Thursdays, Oct. 21, Oct. 28, Nov. 4, and Nov. 11, from 6:30 to 7:30, at the North Heights Rec Center in NLR. This four week class will teach over 50 signs and give you handouts to help remember them.

We'll also talk about the benefits of signing - better communication, earlier speaking and reading, bigger vocabulary, higher IQ, and exposure to the third most common language in the US. You'll learn why it's important to use real ASL signs and not made-up signs whenever possible. You'll also hear some interesting facts about Deaf Culture and ASL language structure.

FREE Baby Sign Language Demo
This one-hour intro will be held at the Main Library in LR, from 3 to 4 on Saturday, Oct. 23. You'll learn about the benefits of signing and a few signs to get started. You'll be able to pick up information on my classes.
