1. Please open the door.
2. The floor is dirty.
3. She slammed the door shut.
4. He walked to school.
CL: V - shows the action of person's legs or eyes. It can also mean 2 people walking. NMS are extremely important when distinguishing between how you looked at something.

THE TIME SPOT
CL: 3 - represents a vehicle such as bicycles, cars, motorcycles, busses, etc. With CL:3 you can show how the vehicle moves.
Rule of 9: If it is anywhere between 1:00 and 9:00, touch the number to the time spot. If it is after 9:00, point to the time spot then sign the number.
Examples:
2:00 pm 10:55 pm

12:15 pm 1:05 pm

Time, Beginnings and Endings
Coursework
Classifiers are handshapes that reflect particular characteristics and are used to describe an object's shape, movement, and location.
Classifiers make ASL more VISUAL!!
We are going to watch a story from YouTube. The boy does a really good job using different classifiers to show WHERE he is at, HOW he is moving, WHAT he is doing, etc...
He is an ASL 2 student. (not at Madison)
I want you to COUNT HOW MANY CLASSIFIERS YOU SEE HIM USE. Write down what they are in your journal.
Example - CL:1 person, CL:3 car, CL:V walking, CL: 1 person running. etc...
Some classifiers are used just to describe an object while others are the actual sign for the object.

This requires you to read. Sorry!! :)
You can use this paper to study from.

The area where most people wear a watch is the time spot. Hold your non-dominant hand to create a base for the time sign made by your dominant hand. The number sign should touch the time spot. If the hour is greater than 9, touch the time spot with you dominant hand before making the number sign.
The Time Spot

Multiple Meanings
You can add +AGENT to a verb to make the sign become a person who does the meaning of the verb.
Confused yet?
If you are running late to class or meeting a Deaf friend, be prepared to explain why you are running late.
TEACH + AGENT = TEACHER
SPORT + AGENT = ATHLETE
PSYCHOLOGY + AGENT = PSYCHOLOGIST
LEARN + AGENT = STUDENT
Activities
To sign fluently you need to be able to distinguish between meanings and concepts of ideas and their signs. This skill is known as conceptually-accurate signing.
Examples include TAKE, BREAK, and MAKE
Classifiers can have different meanings so it is important to identify the object being represented by the classifier.
to COOK
to MANAGE/CONTROL
to PICK ON
to SERVE
to WRITE
Eyes on ASL
Deaf Culture Minute
Classifiers are noted with the abbreviation CL, followed by the sign.
Example: CL: 1 or CL: B
Initialization
1. I'm not a chef, but I like helping my parents cook.
2. Where is our waiter?
3. Who manages the school store?
4. Our coach wants us to go to practice on Saturday.
5. Are you a writer?
6. Are you an employee of HEB?
7. Are you a musician?
Initialization incorporates a fingerspelled letter as part of the sign. Some examples are algebra, calculus, geometry, and trigonometry, as they are all related to the basic math sign.
Did you know?
Federal law requires equal access to information and services for all people, regardless of disability. For example, an interpreter is required to sign what is voiced and to voice what is signed so everybody has access the information and services provided.
A classifier story is one where the signer only uses a specified classifer to tell an entire story.
When using an interpreter, remember these tips:
* Talk directly to the Deaf person instead of saying "tell him" or "ask her."
* Make eye contact with the Deaf person, not the interpreter.

Deaf Culture Minute
The Agent Marker
There are NO signs for Mr., Mrs., or Miss in ASL. Within the Deaf Community, a person is known by his or her sign name. Children are permitted to address their elders by their first name.
The AGENT marker indicates a person who works as, or does, the meaning of the sign. One who learns is a student. There are a few exceptions, such as nurse, principal, coach, and doctor.
Pointing is a basic feature of ASL. Just as a signer points to a person, a signer can point to a location. If the location is within distance, simply point towards the area.
Adding the AREA sign forms a compound meaning, as in HOME + AREA = NEIGHBORHOOD. Remember this by thinking "an area of/for..."

FYI - the signer will ONLY spell each word/number 2 times. They will NOT keep repeating the word. Pay attention and get it on the first try. Don't write down your answer until they spell it BOTH times.
