Hi James. I love your video, it's really amusing. I'm going to use your idea during circle time as I'm sure the kids are going to have great fun trying this song out using Makaton! Kepp up your good work!

Hey Ben, like the video, but I have a few points for you.

When you sign bowls, chairs and beds your directionality, placement and movement was wrong. Your bears should not be signed as objects. They should be signed as heights.

I applause your effort though, nice to see some Makaton stuff on youtube that can be used in classrooms. Good luck on your next video.

I am writing to ask you if I could please have permission to use your video in a classroom activity please? As I found your video to be extremly informative & entertaining!!!Which is what I need at the moment to capture these kids into being intersted about our world.Regards, AMF

Hi James, I have recently started working at a school that supports the lives of students with physical disabilities. Being a teacher from a mainstream teaching background, it is overwhelming & encouraging to be here. However, I have two non-verbal students who I just can't seem to reach just yet due to my limited skills in signing.

Thanks, the autistic children in my class seem to like it too - however they don't seem to mind that i'm a bit tone deaf!!!

Thanks again for your comment,

Regards James

hi, thank you for uploading, ive just be told my child would benefit from learning makaton (she has learning difficulties) but it is so hard to find clips to watch and learn from, everything ive come across so far only offers actions written down on paper, which i find are hard to copy as you dont know if you are signing correctly. it is so great that you have taken the time to upload this for the benefit of others. my daughter will enjoy learning this song. i hope you will be uploading more?!

[jameslewis1]

Thanks, will be uploading some more in the next xouple of weeks, thanks for the feedback!!!!

[Arnster37]

Wow that was excellent and very easy to learn too! We have a little four month old who enjoys us to sing with actions. Will be watching out for More. Bravo!!

[jameslewis1]

thanks, will be uploading some more tonight, Regards James
