New Zealand Sign Language Taster Lesson:
In Term 2, Room 2 were lucky enough to have Rachael from the New Zealand Deaf Association come into our class. We learnt how to sign our name, the alphabet, animals and how to introduce ourselves. It was very challenging for us because we had to only use sign language because Rachael was completely deaf. One thing that she told us that was very sad, was that when she was 12 years old, students in her class would tease her when she would try to talk. Her speech was funny and different to people who can hear. It made us think about how we are all different and we should accept every ones differences, not make fun of them.
