Learn to Sign Week
4th - 10th October 2010

The British Deaf Association invites you to LEARN TO SIGN!

Learn to Sign Week is here again, promoting British Sign Language (BSL) to schools around the UK.

The BDA's Learn to Sign Week kicks off on 4th - 10th October 2010, and is an ideal opportunity for school children and teachers to develop new language and communication skills and encourage people to create a more inclusive society where Deaf and hearing people are equal.

For the first time ever you can take part in Learn to Sign Week through an exclusive DVD resource packed with BSL phrases and fun learning resources. The introduction of the new DVD will make it much easier for teachers to access and schedule BSL sessions to suit their curriculum needs.

Each school which registers to take part in Learn to Sign Week will receive the exclusive DVD at a cost of £50, giving schools flexible access to the valuable resource all year-round.

By taking part in Learn to Sign Week and fundraising for the BDA, you will be supporting our ongoing work campaigning for the rights of Deaf people to use Sign Language in education and have access to everyday information in BSL.

Your fundraising will help us to fund important projects working with Deaf children and youth around the UK and to support our ongoing campaign to give all Deaf children the right to receive bilingual education, using BSL and English.
