Studies show that when we bring Signed language into literacy curriculum, developing readers thrive. Adding the kinesthetic learning component to the visual requirement that reading demands helps young readers significantly, because Sign language makes reading and spelling multi sensory learning. Children move their body as they learn, which is how children learn best!
Research shows us that brining signed language into learning increases focus, engages children’s visual attention and helps bridge comprehension and increases reading level. We use Dolch Sight Words, found to be the most frequently used Sight words found in literature.
It is fun to move our bodies and learn at the same time! Signing with Sight Words is a great way to move your body and learn.
