Read page 131 silently to yourself. What is Shoulder-Shifting? When do we use Shoulder-Shifting?

Constructive Structure (Pg. 130) Using shoulder shifting to ask and answer questions that incorporate more than one detail or piece of information. This generally takes place of the word “and”.

ASL Up Close (Pg. 131) Shoulder Shifting is used for: Contrasting: Multiple topics or pieces of information in the same sentence Comparing: what more than one person says or does Separating: More than one idea or concept in the same sentence.

DVD: Using Shoulder-Shifting Let’s watch the DVD about how to use Shoulder-Shifting.

YOU ANIMAL! P. 133 Add a snap!

Household Pets (Pg. 133) Bird Cat Dog Fish

Accent Step (pg. 133) Many words in ASL are Compound Signs, which are two separate signs combined to make an additional meaning. Combing the signs for mother and father creates parents. When using compounds, sign each portion quickly and smoothly in one motion.

VIDEO TIME!! Signing Age (Pg. 135) Age Spot: the spot on your chin where someone’s age is signed. When signing “How old are you?” use your WH-Face and sign “old”. In ASL-GLOSS is would read… OLD YOU? AGE SPOT VIDEO TIME!!

ASL Up Close (pg. 135) AGE SPOT Place a number sign at the Age Spot and then move the hand shape away from the chin in one movement. You do not need to twist your wrist inward for ages involving the #1-5. Moving the # away from the Age Spot conveys the meaning years old, so you do not need to add separate signs for year and old after the #. The AGE SPOT showing AGE-2 (two years old)

Eyes on ASL pg. 134 All age signs originate at the Age-Spot and face outward. Using separate signs for 10, year and old is sloppy and incorrect.

Four things to know about signing age: 1.) Ages 1-9 always follow the Rule of 9 (look on page 136 for example) 2.) Ages 10-100+ except 13,14,15 follow either variation, depending on the style in your area. 3.) Generally the age numbers are signed like this… (look on page 136) 4.) Ages 13, 14, 15 are signed like this… LOOK ON PAGE 136 FOR EXAMPLES

Classroom Exercise I (Pg. 137) Practice signing ages on #1 and #2 in this classroom exercise. (see next slide) LOOK ON THE PAPER!!!!!!

Age-Related Signs (pg. 137)

ASL Close Up (Pg. 138) The Listing and Ordering Technique: This technique is often used when providing details about one or more person or thing. The Non-Dominant Hand forms a list with each new bit of information signed by the Dominant Hand. Look On Page 138 for examples.

Accent Step Pg. 148 Don’t confuse the signs “love” and “love-it”. “Love” is used for romantic emotions, while “love-it” shows and emotional or sentimental attachment to a person or thing.

Expressions Corner pg. 148 ASL distinguishes between a literal, physical fight and a heated exchange of words, know as a verbal fight. Look closely at the sign; can you see why the sign is appropriate in a signed confrontation?

Accent Step pg. 149 This is one of the more common signs for to break up, though there are many others. Look closely at the sign for “relationship”: How could you make break up using this sign?
