Children's Bible Signs is carefully crafted using Touch, Sight and Sound. When these three teaching methods are combined, and repeated often, kids begin to engage with you — the teacher or parent — throughout the lesson. Children also retain the teachings and repeat what they’ve been taught by using the signs to communicate and trigger their memory.
Each Children's Bible Signs lesson incorporates elements of American Sign Language to teach kinesthetically and visually.
The Teacher/Parent Lesson Guidebook covers the essentials of teaching children major Bible stories. You'll receive 12 Bible-based stories that include signs for key words to use while teaching the story and for kids to use in answering questions. There is also a "Hands-on- Hook" section to help reinforce the message, suggested memory verses and a special section just for the teacher.
Sign language is a powerful tool, not only for children with expressive delays or who can’t communicate verbally but also for young children or those just learning to talk. Because young children pick up and retain signs much more quickly than they do spoken words, sign language lets them communicate their wants even before they can speak.
When you incorporate Children's Bible Signs with verbal repetition in a teaching setting, children will engage actively with Scripture in a brand-new way.
