Beginning Signs Pt. 2

Now that we've gone over how to teach signs, here are the signs most teachers and speech therapists start with. I usually work on one or two new signs at a time. It's important to remember your child doesn't need to get the hand formations exactly right. A good approximation is all we're looking for.

Put your fingers together on each hand and tap your fingertips together




Eat
Put your fingers together on one hand and tap your mouth




Please
Place your hand flat on your chest and make clockwise circles


Thank You
Holding your hand flat, touch your chin and pull your hand down
