SIGNING FOR SENIORS
Signing
for Seniors Thursdays @ 2:00 PM An 8 week Course: Dates going forward are: January 8, 15, & 22. This course will offer a student-generated curriculum of fun, practical and enjoyable sign language focusing on the signs that will be helpful to seniors. Many of us find that we have some hearing loss as we get older and shouting to our partner across the dinner table in a noisy restaurant becomes the norm. This course will offer a way to communicate without the stress! If you have hearing impaired relatives, who use sign language, you will begin to be able to communicate with them in the beautiful language of sign. Learn songs, poems and simple phrases. Exercise those arthritic hands. Develop skill in something you have always wanted to learn. We will discuss the differences between Signed English and American Sign Language and learn a bit of both. There will be repetition and review and new activities for each class, so come to one or come to all! The session will last for with time out for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Fee $5/per class.
