EIHS ASL Students Spread Deaf Awareness at Ñî¹óåú´«Ã½

  • East Islip High School students from Jovina Bratta’s American Sign Language classes visited John F. Kennedy Elementary School on Dec. 19 to spread some deaf awareness and sign holiday songs to fifth graders. The ASL students also set up stations to demonstrate the alphabet and signs in ASL, showed the younger students how to fingerspell their names and other words, and played fun interactive games such as Deaf Telephone and Hangman incorporating facial expression and body movements.  

    “It was a great experience for everyone,” Bratta said.
