It’s never too early, or too late, to start learning another language. And with the study of American Sign Language (ASL) increasing in popularity among post-secondary students, why not get K–12 students on the latest trend as well? Not only will kids be learning a cool new skill, but it will also make classrooms more inclusive and accessible for those who are deaf and hard-of-hearing. Introduce your students—and yourself—to the world of ASL with the help of these fun and engaging apps.
