Description
The Journal Writing and Signing Activities Packet is a comprehensive resource designed to immerse ASL (American Sign Language) students into the vibrant world of Deaf culture. Filled with insightful quotes and engaging tasks, this packet serves as a bridge between language acquisition and cultural understanding. Through thought-provoking prompts and reflective exercises, students are encouraged to explore various facets of Deaf identity, community, and history. This is a great packet for any ASL class, Deaf studies class, or deaf/hard of hearing classroom. There are 30 different journal writing, reading, and task pages in this packet. Each worksheet comes with a famous deaf quote for students to respond to, a short culture reading, and a task to complete connected to the reading.
By delving into these activities, ASL students not only enhance their language skills but also develop a deeper appreciation and respect for the rich tapestry of Deaf culture. This is a great way to get more culture study into your classroom. This also adds a component of reading if your school district requires this.
This can be used as:
- Bell Ringers
- End of class activity

- Group or partner activities
Update 2024: This packet downloads as a PDF but contains a link to a digital Google Slide Deck. The pages can now be assigned digitally (not editable) and students can work on the assignment in your Learning Management System by deleting lines and typing in the text box.
