pickle

Why am I including the sign for pickle in this curriculum?  Because I like pickles.
So do most kids.
Its a shame to not have pickles in the fridge nor know the sign for pickle. 

Another thought though is that if you use a "v" handshape instead of a "p" handshape this sign means "vinegar."  Elsewhere in this lesson I teach the sign for salad.  Now you can say "vinegar and oil" by signing VINEGAR and spelling O-I-L.

pickle:

Note:  If you do this sign on your cheek, instead of at the side of your chin, it will mean "pineapple."


Vinegar:


Note:  if you stick the index finger on your cheek instead of near your chin this sign can mean "vegetable."  I suggest you spell, "V-E-G" to mean vegetable.


Sign: pickle
