Great for ASL Students!

I use this to practice and learn terminology for my American Sign Language classes in college.  It has been very helpful in learning the terminology and sentence structure, which is quite different from oral communications.

I am a speech language pathologist working with students who present with auditory processing disorder. Recalling large amounts of info, listening and comprehending new/difficult words and organization are a real challenge. Regents Boosters has been a lifesaver for my 'kids'! The color coded and numbered cards basically self-organize. The information is broken down, clear and the hints are wonderful :) I love that the cards point out things to focus on specifically (based on the fact that they are more likely to be on the regents). I'll be on the lookout for more subjects!
Thanks Ms Ruth!

I ordered these cards on Kickstarter and recently used them as part of my speech training class for my valedictorians as an icebreaker -- and they worked like a charm! My students couldn't stop talking!

Thank you for creating a really ingenious and wonderful tool! Beautiful cards, guide, and box.

I wanted to start teaching my self sign language and this book is great for a beginner.  I really like that the book is spiral bound inside.  The signs/photos in the book are very easy to follow.

A great resource for assisting students with Asperger's with their writing and organizing their thoughts-I highly recommend this to all of my clients.

We love this book!  It is a great beginning sign language book for young children. It has several pages of card-size illustrations with words and descriptions of how to do the sign. They are easy to copy and cut out for bulletin board and/or child's personal dictionary or to create sign cards. The drawings are black and white, clear, with a diversity of children, and very appealing to a young child.  The chapters are thematic with lesson ideas. My daughter loves the book.  I only wish there was more!  My little one is learning sign to communicate and this book has been wonderful to engage her.

I love Eric Carle's artistry.

I have a couple of his books - My toddler and I have been taking ASL (American Sign Language) since she was 6 months old.

It's been a blast using these cards for animals, colors and numbers!

The cards AND box are extremely sturdy. Yes, they held up to the toddler test!

Russ, this book was great! I learned so much more than I thought I could from a book. It really helped me in my ASL class, and I recommend it for everyone, whether or not you are taking ASL or Deaf Culture classes. It gave me great insight into the Deaf World and helped me understand to true importance of the DPN protest. I always tried to imagine what growing up was like in a house that you couldn't communicate with, but until I read this book, I underestimated it! Can't wait for your second book to be published!!

Very helpful when learning the basics of sign language, and I was happy to see that grammar and sentence structure were included, because many people think that ASL has the same grammar and sentence structure as spoken English, but that is simply not true. The signs included were all helpful and really helpful for me to get started along with some dictionary flashcards (a great idea to expand vocabulary along with this).

It is really useful for a student like me . The key board is comfortable. And i can change the angel anytime!  I RECOMMEND it!

The text is clearly organized and concisely written. Both text and accompanying DVD best benefit ASL students of level III or higher.  The material contains practical and applicable exercises for each unit, supplemental readings with examples that reinforce information presented in the core parts, and solid references.  A glossary is not part of the text, so take time to log vocabulary while reading.

I am an Auslan teacher (Australian Sign Language). Initially when I bought this book, I was hoping to see a list of activities or ideas for teaching basic signs. So I was a bit disappointed not to see such a list.

However this book is directed at individuals and is not a teacher's manual!

Overall it was well written with good sections on signs that are used in day to day situations. The diagrams are clear. The added DVD with clips of signs is invaluable!

Thank you for this book!

This is a wonderful dictionary, and believe me I own them all. This one is by far the best one out there. It includes most of the new signs that have come out and does a great job with the art/picture as well as a detailed description in how to sign the word. It also goes so far as to include the part of speech it is in ASL, and often provides where the sign came from - its history - which assists in recalling the sign. This is a must have book for the shelves of every ASL student or teacher.

I LOVE these! My son has non-verbal classic autism and is prone to sensory issues, especially loud noises. Many of the kids in his ISD classroom are exceptionally loud and these have been such a god send. He has several pairs in different colors, styles, brands -- but this set has held up the best. The noise cancelling ability and the comfortable feel are better than competitor brands as well. We will be buying several more of these sets. He also wears them to appointments and his sisters' cheer competition.
I would recommend these to any parent who has a child on the spectrum with sensory problems and also for noise-use for your neurotypical children. My daughter wore these to a concert with her papa, worked really well. Great product, arrived quickly!

Purchased as a gift for my sister and niece, and both of them loved it! My family has used sign language for each of the kids in the next generation and it has helped empower the kids. It even managed some tantrums because they were able to communicate better instead of getting frustrated by limitations in their ability to express themselves.

Disclosure:  I received this as a gift from the publisher with the hope I'd like it and review it, tho there were no guarantees.  The request was based on reviews I'd done on several other ASL books I'd purchased for my wife who's learning ASL.  She and I have looked through these books (we received 4) and feel they are an exciting and fun way to improve ASL finger spelling recognition.  To have fun with the books one should have a basic knowledge of the ASL alphabet.  All the books follow a similar format, with the alphabet, and practice technique suggestions.  Then each book focuses on one type of word:  1) Verbs, 2) Adverbs, 3) Adjectives (this book), and 4) Bundled 1-3.  The books I received were all level 2-3, which are for 3rd to 5th grade level.  For us, that is plenty challenging.  If you want a fun way to learn / improve in the ASL alphabet, finger-spelling, recognition of the hand's / finger's position for each letter of the alphabet to spell words, these are fun books to help you do it.  And the prices are extremely reasonable on Amazon. We recommend the series.
