btw,
I
haven't
had
time
yet
to
look
at

I
have
changed
jobs, <br>>
from
interpreter
to
teacher
and
I
now
have
a
lot
less
unstructured <br>>
time,
but
I
am
having
a
blast,
and
will
start
incorporating
SW
soon...<br><br>Hello
Cherie!<br>This
is
quite
exciting.
Congratulations
on
your
new
teaching
position <br>at
Georgia
School
for
the
Deaf!<br><br>And
incorporating
SignWriting
into
the
science
classroom
is
quite <br>progressive...<br><br>Did
you
know
that
years
ago
Dr.
Ingvild
Roald,
from
Norway,
taught <br>physics
classes
at
a
school
for
the
Deaf
in
Norway?<br><br>...and
Ingvild
used
SignWriting
to
record
the
name
of
plants
species <br>and
other
science
terminology,
such
as
atoms,
neutrons
etc
in <br>Norwegian
Sign
Language....<br><br>So
SignWriting
has
been
used
as
a
tool
in
science
classes
before<br><br>There
is
an
article
about
it
on
the
web...<br><br>Go
to:<br><a href="http://www.signwriting.org/forums/linguistics/" target="_blank">http://www.signwriting.org/forums/linguistics/</a><br><br>and
it
is
the
first
article,
called
"Terminology
in
the
Making"...<br><br>It
starts
here:<br><br><a href="http://www.signwriting.org/forums/linguistics/ling036.html" target="_blank">http://www.signwriting.org/forums/linguistics/ling036.html</a><br><br>and
continues
for
many
web
pages,
explaining
how
the
terminology
for <br>atoms,
and
neutrons
etc
were
developed
and
then
written
in
a
physics <br>terminology
dictionary
and
so
forth...<br><br>Anyway,
keep
us
informed
as
to
your
work...<br><br>Val
