This is a great clip to watch about sign language and how treasured it is by Deaf people. Please watch this clip carefully. I suggest you watch it in groups and work your way through it. You may either write or sign your response. Students that decide to sign every comment on this blog/vlog will receive extra credit. However, you must sign ALL of the blogs/vlogs assignments to receive this extra credit.

Here is the clip:

I want you to discuss what you understood in this clip (what is being "said", what you feel is the most important message that people should take from this video, and why others should watch it.

If you sign your response it must be at least a minute long.

If you write your comment it needs to be at least a paragraph long.

I look forward to your responses!

  10. The message that i got from this video is that signing is important. For what talking is to hearing people, Signing is to Deaf/Hard of Hearing people. It is their language. Deaf people can do anything Hearing people can...from taking care of a child to going swimming. Every culture has their own language and their own way of doing things. Deaf culture signs, Hearing culture talks. Hearing people should mock or tease Deaf people or their language. It is a beautiful language. Other people should watch this video to understand why signing is so important and how beautiful it is.

  16. For some reason when I upload my videos to youtube, they get fast forwarded.
    This comment was over a minute, and I tried to upload it twice, but it got cut down to 26 seconds.
    I'm trying to fix the problem, sorry for technical difficulties.

    But here is my comment for blog 2!
