In Their Own Words

Ruth Hazel Reppert, AB’52

This guide is part of a curriculum that teaches sign communication with those who are deaf or hard of hearing. The three components of this curriculum are: the textbook, Sign Language Made Simple by Edgar D. Lawrence, the practice videotape, and the instructor's kit. The Instructor's Guide, authored by Reppert, includes 40 lesson plans, teacher resources, student handouts, tests and answer keys--everything an instructor needs for effective teaching of the subject. Reppert also produced the VHS practice videotape in which she is the video tutor, demonstrating all of the signs in the textbook. For ages 9-adult.
