Beginners ASL Class

✨This past Wednesday, the Tigris Foundation sponsored a Beginners ASL Class at the Abington Library led by Karen Kennedy from the Deaf-Hearing Communications Center! 🙌

Participants from grades 4-8 learned all about deaf culture, basic vocabulary, and ASL grammar! 👩‍🏫

We asked some of the kids why they wanted to learn ASL—here’s what they had to say:

⭐️“It’s a good tool.”

⭐️“To support a friend who is hard of hearing!”

⭐️“In case I ever have to help a deaf person.”

Thank you to the Deaf-Hearing Communications Center for helping inspire the next generation to learn ASL! 🧡
