Our summer June 2019 cycle is PAH* open for registration. For this cycle, we are offering three levels and continuing one class in Coquitlam!
*fun fact: PAH means “finally!” “at last!” “i did it!” in ASL – we write PAH to represent this sign as we use this mouthshape while signing this sign.
Please read on to learn more about what each level offers and register for a class if you’d like to:
Queer ASL 101: This course covers learning the alphabet, finger-spelling, introductions, likes & dislikes, languages, locations, and much more. At the end, students take turns telling an autobiography about themselves.
Queer ASL 102: This course covers learning about activities, living arrangements, people, transportation, and much more. At the end, students share & discuss photos of their chosen families with each other.
Queer ASL 103: This course digs into the world of time grammar, topic + comment structure, directional verbs, space use, and much more. At the end, students do an overall ASL 101 – 103 review through activities.
Queer ASL 104: This course focuses on learning ASL classifiers, mouth morphemes, role shifting, and developing their storytelling skills. Through-out the course, students work on a children story of their own and get one-on-one storytelling input from their teacher via video.
*We are not offering this level until Autumn 2019*
