Hey everyone! Hope you are all kicking ass in your projects! Here is a short video of me doing some basic sign. Progress has been slow for me, not going to lie. Luckily I have my buddy Rebekah who is also learning ASL so we are able to practice together and have very basic conversations. Progress may be slow but I am enjoying every minute of it. I often find myself procrastinating other school work with learning sign, and compared to my previous procrastinations of Netflix and cellphone, is a miracle.

Hey Brian!
I think it is amazing that you are learning sign language and once you are able to implement it into your classroom, all the hard work you are putting in this term will be worth it! Even though your progression may be slow, you are definitely learning a lot as you just showed you are able to hold a basic conversation. Keep up the great work!

Brian, it has been a pleasure to sign with you this past week. As you know, I had previously taken ASL but I don’t remember too much. I am so happy that you and Rebekah are tackling sign language and sharing your learnings with our cohort. Like Natalie said, it will be SUCH a rewarding skill to have and especially in your future of teaching.
I am excited to learn more from you and Rebekah and hopefully jog back some of my memory.
Happy Thanksgiving!
