About half way through the
semester you need to have your students sit in circle. You go
around the circle and have them spell the name of the student on
their right.
In college classes most level 1
and 2 students are pretty good at spelling their own name, but some
still struggle to spell the name of their neighbors.
At the beginning of class as the
students come in I post an overhead or write a message on the board
telling the students to make sure they know the name of their
neighbors. Then during the activity they are able to spell it
to me.
This not only helps them practice their fingerspelling, but it
provides a way for them to get to know each other better. Plus it
helps me learn their names.
