My Project

Most of these materials are basic classroom materials that make students' lives at school more manageable. They are constantly asking to print things, staple papers, cut, color ect. I am also using Dungeons and Dragons in my American Sign Language classes to motivate my students to learn and use ASL. The game is collaborative and creative. My hope is the game will give my students something to look forward to, and create a classroom community where they support each other.

Linguistically, DnD is a good tool for students to learn about advanced grammar, unique vocabulary, classifier handshapes, depiction verbs, describing people and places, surrogates, role shifts, eye gaze, and using appropriate non-manual morphemes.
