<div class="hmmessage" style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Tahoma;">I
was wondering how many teacher of ASL as a second language are using
Sign Writing in their classrooms? I've been teaching ASL for 10 years,
and have decided to add it as a regular part of teaching ASL in my high
school classes this year. I wanted to get feedback from others who
might be doing this. Thanks!</div>

<div>It is an attractive web site. If you need help with the
SignWriting part of it, we will be glad to help you...</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I am so happy to learn that you plan to use SignWriting as a
part of teaching ASL. Reading and writing a language is an important
part of learning a language, and can help new students remember what
they learn in class.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We have more written American Sign Language literature
now...which means you will have more reading materials for your
students ...I am creating a listing of all of the literature on the
web, and I will post that shortly, so you can download documents to use
as reading material in class...or just visit the ASL Literature Puddle:</div>

<div>I do not know how many teachers use SignWriting as a part of
their ASL classes. I hope more will follow your lead!</div>
