We’re excited to share this week’s Lámh Sign – it’s a word we use every day… School!

Learning how to sign “School” is a great way to support communication and inclusion in classrooms, at home, and in the community. Let’s get signing!

👉 How to sign School:

Left Hand (L.H.): Use an ‘l’ handshape, palm facing upwards and diagonally forward in front of your chest.

Right Hand (R.H.): Use an ‘s’ handshape, palm facing sideways.

Movement: Bring your R.H. up to your forehead.

That’s it – you’ve just signed “School”! 👏

💡Tip: Practice the sign a few times slowly, then try it in a sentence like “Going to school” or “I like school”.

Keep an eye out for our next Lámh Sign of the Week – and happy signing! ✋😊

Dear Parents and Guardians,

This sign is a wonderful way for children to communicate about their teacher and classroom environment.

👋 How to Sign “Teacher”:

Tap your cheek twice with the index finger.

This sign is a simple and meaningful way for children to identify and talk about their teacher.

💡 When to Use It:

• Naming the teacher in stories, songs, or games
• Saying hello or goodbye to the teacher
• During circle time or role-play
