Sign of the Week

Per task # 63, I am to learn a new sign word every week. Well as you can see, I am slacking BIG time. So today I am revealing what I will learn this week and probably a couple of extra weeks. 

The reason I put this on my list is because my daughter's daycare will be teaching her how to sign as she develops. In order to better understand her and build my own skill set, I wanted to learn too. Sign language is a unique but beautiful way to communicate with others. Call me weird, but I always found it fascinating when I would watch people sign on TV as interpreters for the hearing impaired.

I am being realistic when I say that I won't be able to learn the entire language but some key words or phrases may come handy in life.

This week I will focus on the Alphabet or Manual Alphabet used to Finger Spell. Here is a poster from HowStuffWorks.com
