The heart of ASL at Home: an innovative, family-centered curriculum designed for families with young deaf children and the professionals who support them.

Structure of the book

Each lesson is organized around a routine that is common in most young children’s days, to learn during a single home visit or center-based class, or they might be stretched over several visits. Depending on the structure of the early intervention program, visits may take place daily, weekly, monthly, or at some other frequency.

Each lesson includes the following sections:

1. Vocabulary

2. Fingerspelling

3. Phrase practice

4. Receptive practice

5. Language enrichment lesson

6. Cultural wealth lesson
