**NOTE: The letter 'P' in this video is what your view is. When you make the sign the thumb should be facing towards your body. If you want to learn the alphabet visit our video here:

We use this song in our classes to teach older kids the sounds the letters make. If you teach it in conjunction with the ASL hand shapes then the child learns to recognize the hand shape and the sound that goes with it. You can then start putting the letters together to form words.

Hi I love what you're doing and thankyou soo much for all the amazing video. I had a quick question for you, when doing alphabets, is better to start with one 'type' of letter case (capital or small letter)? just to keep consistency or toddlers can learn both simultaneously. I'm very confused when teaching my toddler. Hoping to hear back from you.

Thanks!

@khanmaida Good question. When I started with my daughter I stared with capital letters. For some reason they tend to learn these first. Then I would move on to lower case letters once her upper case were solid. Then you can combine them.

for "p," is your hand supposed to be turned out, or should it be like the girl's hand (facing you)?

[SmartHandsCA]

@KenshinForever for 'P' it should be facing you, it should feel comfortable. I just showed it that way so you could see where to place your thumb.

No zed?

[SmartHandsCA]

@yaddleskidaddle The one with 'zed' in it is the 'Canadian' version. This one is the 'zee' American version

i'm an english teacher in mexico, and this the first time i teach my kids signing ABC. This is helping my kids A LOT to read and write!! this made learning letters and sounds the fastest i've ever seen! You know, english pronunciation is totally different from spanish, and this makes difficult for kids learning to read, because they confused the spanish and english phonetics (they're learning to read and write in spanish at the same time) thank you very much!!

i am 11 and this has been a great help!

@cheekyloas I'm teaching myself as well. Its easier if you can goes somewhere quiet so words dont get in the way of signs. Also try writing a conversation down and signing it. The sign language book is a great rescource and it has quizzes after ever chapter so you can track your learning.

My son is 2.5 years old. He wasn't learning his letters very well so we started watching a regimen of ABC videos for 20 minutes every night before bed. We always start off with this one, then continue with the one with Fireese making words on your fridge. Then we play a bunch of others. Now he runs around saying A B E A B E! I sign letters to him often. Now I can show him a letter hand sign and have him select it on the keyboard and name it. Thank you MSH!!
