🦃 Sign Language Fun Ideas 🦃
Check out our top ideas for using ASL flashcards in the classroom! These activities are designed to make learning fun and engaging while reinforcing vocabulary through sign language.
- Memory Game: Get two sets of flashcards and place them face down on the floor. Students take turns flipping over two cards and saying them aloud. If the cards match, the student keeps them. The one with the most pairs at the end wins!
- Charades: Select a student to come to the front and show them a flashcard. They’ll sign the word to the rest of the class, and the first student to guess correctly gets to go next. You can even divide the class into teams for some friendly competition.
- Pictionary: Perfect for reviewing vocabulary! Have a student draw a flashcard picture on the board while the others guess the word. The first one to guess correctly gets to draw the next picture. This game can also be played in teams with a point system.
- Fingerspell Challenge: Form a circle with a person in the middle. With their eyes closed, the person in the middle spins around and points. The person pointed to must sign the flashcard and fingerspell the word. This builds receptive skills.
- Basketball Fun: Set up a trash can or box as the “basket.” Show a flashcard to Student 1, and if they answer correctly, they get a shot at the basket. A successful attempt earns 2 points, while hitting the basket without going in earns 1 point. Keep scoring individually or play in teams for added excitement.
- Sign Relay: Divide the class into two teams lined up in parallel. Have someone at the front pick a flashcard, sign it, and then the first student in each line races to ring a bell and correctly say the matching word. This game adds a dash of competition to reinforce sign language skills.
Enjoy these creative activities with ASL flashcards, and watch your students have a blast while learning and reviewing vocabulary!
