American Sign Language Program
Our American sign Language program​​ is being taught to our Pre-K students  in the Spring each week by Sydney Werner. Research has demonstrated
 that
 adding the visual and kinesthetic elements
 (American Sign Language) to 
​verbal communication helped to enhance the 
vocabulary, spelling, and reading skills 
in the participating preschool children. This 
research was conducted by Dr. Marilyn Daniels, a professor of speech communication
 at Penn State University. 
Babies as young as 6 
months can learn to make and understand basic
 sign language and communicate with others. By teaching the spoken word along with the sign, 
many parents find that their children learn to
 speak faster and more easily than many of their peers. If you are wondering when the best age is to learn sign language for kids, then the answer 
​seems to be while they are only a few months old.
