Bilingual instruction in action with Deaf Children: NALB

Barb DiGi demonstrates several applications to No ASL Left Behind (NALB), Chapter 1 series by having her elementary-aged deaf children reading the text using ASL. This simple reading activity is an example how to make a leap forward in reading comprehension among Deaf children. Had to edit from 20 minutes of taping to under 6 so the whole process could not be shown but you will see how it works to give you a picture.

Hi Barb! This video was great, your breakdown and analysis of the linguistic processes that are co-occurring from both the ASL perspective and the English perspective was extremely intelligent and well done. I'm a fan of your videos - you are very very talented and have an infectious passion that I admire and applaud. Hugs
