American Sign Language II is an extension of basic aspects taught in American Sign Language I – basic vocabulary, structure, syntax, and grammar. Students will continue to focus on fingerspelling, numbers, facial grammar, and sentence structure while developing the conversational/cultural behaviors necessary to hold a beginning-level conversation. More examples of Deaf culture will be presented to aid student development of awareness and appreciation for the unique language. Students will also have the opportunity to build receptive and expressive sign vocabulary, use signing space, and further use of non-manual components of ASL grammar including facial expression and body postures.
