Welcome to “Sign Safari” – An American Sign Language Immersion Camp for Young Animal Enthusiasts and Aspiring Signers!

Embark on an extraordinary adventure with our “Sign Safari” camp, a thematic unit meticulously designed for children who are fascinated by the animal kingdom and eager to learn American Sign Language (ASL). This camp presents a unique blend of global wildlife education and ASL instruction, offering an engaging journey through the animal world and the basics of sign language communication. Campers will discover various animals from all around the world, learn how to sign to describe these animals, and explore different ecosystems, all while having fun and learning in an interactive environment.

Exploring Global Wildlife Through ASL: Each day, our young explorers will embark on a new safari adventure, learning about different animals from various parts of the planet. From the African savannas and the jungles of South America to the depths of the ocean and the icy landscapes of the Arctic, campers will learn about the habitats, behaviors, and characteristics of wildlife from these regions.

American Sign Language Immersion: As campers dive into the world of global wildlife, they will also be engaged in learning ASL. Our activities, including animal identification, storytelling, and interactive games, will be conducted using American Sign Language, providing an immersive and hands-on learning experience. This approach allows children to learn ASL in a context that is both educational and captivating.

Interactive and Educational Activities: “Sign Safari” is packed with a variety of interactive and educational activities. Campers might participate in sign language storytelling about animal adventures, create animal-themed sign language posters, or engage in role-play exercises to understand and describe animal behavior through ASL.

Learning About Animal Conservation and Ecosystems: In addition to exploring wildlife, campers will learn about the importance of animal conservation and the role of different ecosystems in maintaining biodiversity. They’ll discuss the impact of human activities on wildlife and explore ways to protect and preserve animal habitats.

Cultural Appreciation and Language Skills Development: Our camp aims to foster an appreciation for the diversity of wildlife around the world and the importance of communication through sign language. Campers will develop their ASL skills and gain a broader understanding of how sign language can be used to bridge communication gaps and promote inclusivity.
