Today was my first sign language class. At the school where I teach we have a hearing
impaired program. These students use sign language and come to my class with an interpreter. I have been wanting to
communicate better with these students and feel bad when I have to turn to the interpreter for help. Today I learned mother, father, sister, brother, feelings/emotions, weather, how, you, me, friendship, and good morning. I am so
grateful to the wonderful teachers that offered to teach any willing staff member at our school. I can't wait until
tomorrow morning when I can great them in sign language and say good morning, how are you feeling, and talk about the sunny, windy weather we have been having here in Baltimore.

Great start to your blog. I look forward to reading about your experiences.
I imagine it was quite the change moving from the U.P. to Baltimore. I live in Michigan and just earned my endorsement last spring. The job market here is sooo bad. I really do not want to move so for now I am subbing as much as possible.
Good luck with the school year.
