## Key Sections in Your Signing Naturally Units 7-12 Workbook:

### Assignment

At end of some homework, there is a section called Assignment, in which you are asked to develop or rehearse something for the next class. It is important you take the time to complete these assignments in your interactive sign language workbook. These activities are designed to help you develop greater facility with the targeted language elements.

### Vocabulary Review

At the end of the homework, the Signing Naturally Student Workbook Units 7-12 includes a Vocabulary Review that lists all the key vocabulary introduced in class. Printed video captures of the signs are numbered to correspond to the signs on video. The meaning of the signs is given by using pictures or written definitions.

### New Vocabulary

In some mini dialogues or narratives, under the heading New Signs, this ASL digital curriculum shows captures of new sign(s) from the video along with their definitions. Learning these signs provides a good opportunity to expand your vocabulary.

### Self-Assessment

At the end of each unit, this virtual ASL learning resource includes a Self-Assessment. Fill out the form thoughtfully as it will pinpoint areas where you need more practice. If you rate yourself with a 3 or below in any part of the assessment, you should formulate a plan of action to strengthen that particular skill. After a month, assess yourself again. Continue in this manner until you can honestly rate yourself with 4 or better in all areas.
