I purchased this book to use as a text for my daughter to learn sign as her foreign language. The illustrations are very easily understood, and as the title suggests, pertains to the average school day. The chapters include: Finger Alphabet, Asking Questions and Getting Answers, Courtesies and Greetings, Giving Direction, and Words Around School. This book would make an excellent resource for teachers and students alike to learn how to communicate with a hearing-impaired classmate. We look forward to more titles being added to this series.

I bought this book for my 8 year old niece, and I'm happy to say that she loves it and it's probably going to change her life in a very positive way.

This book was exactly what I was looking for as a substitute teacher. I am often in a class that has a special needs child in it and it is so nice to be able to communicate directly with the child rather than working through their aide. It gives me exactly the phrases I need, not too many. It is a great tool for me.

This was purchased for a 7 yr old who was learning sign in school because there were a couple of hearing impaired children in her class and she wanted to be able to talk with them. She has learned much from this book in a short time. She now teaches her grandmother and "tests" her on what she has learned.

Our 8 year old daughter is always eager to learn new things and in fact learned spanish on her own and now helps her fellow classmates who are Hispanic understand what the teachers were teaching!

I bought the book on sign language because I knew she would be interested in learning it. and the very first day, she started learning it, and asking her sisters to learn too so "they could talk to each other"

The book is a wonderful book, very reasonably priced, and perfect for any child who wants to go beyond what is taught in elementary schools. We are thrilled that Amazon offers such WONDERFUL learning tools for children And especially for such reasonable costs! JMS
