These Sign Picture Cards have been created for any child who requires a visual representation in order to support their language development. This is part of a series of support materials for teaching the ‘curriculum language’ throughout the primary years. There are 35 cards in this pack.
These cards  support a wide range of visual learners including children who have:
  • Language delays / dyslexia
  • English as a second language
  • Difficulty learning new concepts
  • Difficulty remembering and using keywords in their writing
  • Or who are deaf...........and many more.
  • The cards are also designed to help:
  • Head teachers to develop an inclusive school
  • Teachers to develop inclusive classrooms
  • Differentiation
  • Explicit language teaching and learning
  • How to use them:
  • Stick the Sign Picture Cards on the white-board and highlight the key words/signs/ concepts that you will be       focusing on during the lesson.
  • During group work or ‘write up’ time, select and give each group a selection of words that they need to include.
  • Cover part of the Sign Picture Card and ask the children to guess what the English word or Sign could be.
  • Quiz the whole class on the Sign, spelling and meaning of the cards.
  • Give the selected cards to the support teacher and child before the lesson so that they can prepare.
  • Compare the different lip patterns on the cards.
  • Point to the key word as you use the language during the lesson. This can be very useful during the plenary       stage.
  • Parents/Guardians can learn the same sign and key words as their child in school.
  • Parents/Guardians can use these cards as a starting point when finding out and discussing what their child       learnt in school.
