Life Signs with Dina

Life Signs with Dina Two ways to learn sign language! ASL Classes for beginners and advanced at Odessa College. I have been a certified Interpreter for the Deaf for 30 years.

Ask me about Baby Signs, Too - Teach your babies how to talk before they can talk! I have taught sign language classes at the public schools, colleges, churches, community library and many other venues for 25 years. I am currently teaching ASL1 and ASL 2. I was excited about adding Baby Signs to a new teaching class as well. The Baby Signs Program is the world's leading sign language program for hearing babies. It is an early-intervention program that has been proven through scientific research to boost babies' cognitive, language and social-emotional development. The Baby Signs Program was chosen by the U.S. Department of Defense for use in their Child and Youth Services programs for military families around the world.

Indiana folks- have you seen this?

Ris spotted this in downtown Shelbyville, Indiana, and had to share it with me!

The bike rack spells SHELBY in ASL. From what I found, it was a Leadership Shelby County project, working with the Shelby County Chamber, City of Shelbyville, and Blue River Community Foundation.

But I’d love to know more about the story behind it. Who came up with the ASL idea? Were any Deaf people involved or consulted?

Anyone know more? Please share!

Ps. Yes, the h is wrong, apparently h is a struggle for many.
