single English word (e.g. light ) and uses it in four
separate, contextualized sentences (e.g. 1) Turn on a light !
The room is too dark! 2) The kitten is light. The puppy is
heavy. 3) I ate a lot for breakfast. I will eat a light lunch.
4) Grandpa will light his pipe.) The student reads each
sentence. If translating to ASL, the student decides which ASL handshape was
used to make the sign for the target word in each sentence. The student cuts
out the related ASL Handshape from a copied page with all handshapes and pastes
it in the correct box. As each sentence uses a multiple meaning for the
word the handshapes used will be different-visually signifying the difference
in meaning despite the same English word. Finally the student illustrates the
sentence meaning. Vocabulary and sentences are kept simple to ensure
cognitive energy is focused of the meaning of the word in context.
