New Zealand Sign Language Week

Hello Bloggers, This Weeks Wednesday Task Is Learning More In-Depth About One Of Our Three National Languages Which Is Sign Language. Todays Task was to challenge ourselves by learning and playing a game which our Teacher found called "Sign Ninja Game" It has a variety of different challenges, for example, the colours, numbers, names of members from a family tree, Puzzles etc you can also earn different awards and Belts. This game does progress into a more complex version. Before our lesson did start, however, we watched a couple of videos to give us a brief explanation of why Sign Language is so important to our country and the alphabet. We would then practise aloud Signing our name and other key attributes. Sign language is a brilliant tool that will help bridge that communication gap that might exist when there is a hearing impairment and even in situations where there is no hearing impairment present. Since communication is so important, that makes learning sign language invaluable for communication. Sign Language is taught at all Schools and can be very efficient. (Reasoning - Said Above) Once we had finished learning about these Signs, we had to create a video of ourselves saying "My name is" by using the letters of our name. My video is not uploading, however, I will try and get it to work. Can you Sign your name, including colours, Numbers and other things too?
