24) Signing Time Volume 1: My First Signs


Bibliographic Citation: Signing Time Volume 1: My First Signs. Dir. Emilie De Azevedo Brown. Perf. Rachel De Azevedo Coleman. Two Little Hands Productions, 2007. DVD.

Format: DVD

Age Group: Ages 2-4 Years

Annotation: Singing TiME is an interactive video that introduces and teaches children
American Sign Language. 

Reflection: The Signing TiME! video teaches beginning American Sign Language (ASL) in a playful manner.  An adult demonstrates a word through sign movement and is followed by children mimicking the sign.  The video is easy for children to follow and mirror the signs being demonstrated.   The video is set to catchy music as well to keep them engaged.  Signing TiME!  is especially good for children with physical restrictions and/or speech impediments and exposes children to different languages at an early age.
