2 Laser TEAM Sign Language Description Review RESPECT: INTEGRITY: GENEROUS: HONEST: TRUE: Cross the first two fingers on the right hand. Place crossed fingers over right eye. The sign is made by bringing the hand away from the head, almost like making a salute. Some variations of the sign include crossing the fingers on both hands, placing both hands together with fingers pointing straight up, then making the sign from the center of the forehead. Place the pointer fingers on both hands on the chest over the heart. The sign is made my drawing a heart shape over the heart. Then both hands are brought in front of the body at chest level, one on top of the other, and closed into fists, like squeezing something. Place open hand, palm toward body, over the heart. The sign is made by bringing the hand straight out in front of the body with the palm up. Hold left hand in front of body, palm up. Place right hand, with first two fingers pointing straight out, at back of left palm. The sign is made by sliding right hand straight out across left palm and fingers. Hold pointer finger out on right hand. Place finger just below lips. The sign is made by bringing the right hand out and pointing away from the body. Some variations include opening the hand as it moves away from the body and ending in what looks like a hand extended for a handshake. DO THE RIGHT THING: Hold pointer fingers out on both hands, pointing away from body, and place right hand on top of left hand. The sign is made by gently tapping the right hand on top of the left hand. Please be aware that variations exist in many signs due to regional customs or differences. We have tried to select signs that are universally recognized. Common variations to these signs are listed in the description of each sign.

14 DIRECTIONS: You learned sign language for a few words during the laser assembly. Below you will find cards with the letters of the alphabet in sign language and in written form. Cut out the cards on the lines. With these cards, you can play many games. Spread the cards out on your desk, face up. Try to match the sign language letter with the written letter. Spell a word with the sign language cards and see if a friend can use the written letter cards to spell the word. Turn the cards face down and play memory by turning two cards over at one time. If a sign language letter matches a written letter, you get to go again. If they don t match, turn them back over and let a friend have a turn. Show a friend a sign language card and see if they can make the sign with their hand. For a harder game, show a friend a written letter and see if they can make the sign language letter with their hand. What other games can you think of? Try them and have fun! (You can use a sign language alphabet chart to help.) a b c d e f g h i j k l
