Have them sign the directions to a destination. Each student could use the map to plan a journey, then sign the route, times, and itinerary. Students could respond to the video through role-playing, discussion, or presentations. Have students each choose an article from a Deaf youth magazine and generate four questons about the most interesting facts. Then ask them to exchange their articles with partners.
Students can ask their questons after partners have had an opportunity to read the articles.
Self-assessment plays an important role in supporting skill development. Have students work in pairs to develop role plays that demonstrate their abilities to acquire information from Deaf speakers and ASL videos. For example, they might plan activities based on information about careers or simulate job interviews or planning vacations. Rate each aspect of their performances on a five-point scale. Students could assess their own performances and provide feedback to their peers using the same scale.
