My Smart Hands Grande Prairie

Offering ASL signing classes with My Smart Hands in the Grande Prairie, Alberta area for young children ages newborn to 5 years.

These classes run in 8 week sessions at a cost of $130. We keep class sizes small with a maximum of 6 families per class. In our classes you will learn over 100 signs to use with your child. Classes are 45 minutes in length and are created for parents /caregivers and babies. In a playful, educational and language-rich environment, caregivers and children will build their American Sign Language (ASL) vocabulary through instruction, interactive games and songs. You will learn recommended first signs; we will discuss the benefits of using ASL with infants and demonstrate easy techniques for successfully integrating signs into everyday life. Some of the ASL vocabulary covered for this age group includes: everyday words, family, food, animals, emotions, opposites, bed time and play signs. All of our classes include a full color MSH™ curriculum book with a CD of the songs we teach. The books have pictures of the signs learned along with descriptions for easy reference long after the class is over!
