British Sign Language

Childcare workers will find it easier to ommunicate with deaf children thanks to a new book that brings a fresh, clear approach to British Sign Language (BSL). Let's Sign: Early Years BSL Building Blocks Child and Carer Guide is written and illustrated by both deaf and hearing authors and introduces sign language through the Signwells - a group of characters that helps both adults and children understand how sign language works. The book uses attractive pictures and large print to describe 320 everyday signs including numbers and variations. Each picture has a caption to describe handshapes, movement and any changes in context. Let's Sign costs 7.99 plus 2 p&p per order. Contact 01594 833858 for more information.
