I am so proud of how my ASL students are doing with storytelling! They are retelling three stories from Signing Naturally: “Timber,” “Gum Story,” and “Gallaudet & Clerc.” I credit the language models, Joey Baer, Stefanie Ellis, and Tyrone Giordano; the authors, Ella Mae Lentz, Ken Mikos, and Cheri Smith; and myself for maximizing the curriculum to help my students learn.
In short, I am proud of my students, proud of myself, and thankful to the people who contributed to my teaching and my students’ learning. It is a great feeling!
