Pets, Animals, and Creatures

Are your sign language materials ASL or Signed English? Yes! A question that too often cloaks, "Whose camp are you in?" Our offerings tend to run closer to the linguistic models of Standard English. While our Word in the Hand #10256 book is clearly modeled for Signed English, our Sign Language Literature Series models Conceptually Accurate Signed English (CASE), and other books which primarily present vocabulary (e.g., Pets, Animals & Creatures #3027) select common usage signs based upon the ASL and Gallaudet communities. Other books (e.g., Signing at School #3016 or Can I Help? #3014) model sentence structures closer to English syntax than ASL.
