Schools using SignWriting

[Valerie Sutton]

There are pages and pages of reports from Belgium on the web:

http://www.signwriting.org/belgium/

Take a look at this wonderful Power Point demonstration from the  
Kasterlinden School:

http://www.signwriting.org/belgium/kasterlinden12.html

You can download the presentation in its entirety...

Plus don't forget the schools using SignWriting in Brazil...

and there is a half-hour TV program on kids in Germany using  
SignWriting that is wonderful...
