Preparatory activities
These activities can be done before you start with tactile signs, but also along the way. In order for the person to experience the meaning of using their hands to communicate with, it is important to start with something that is meaningful, and something the person understands. For some, it can be challenging to use their hands with tactile signs, then preparatory activities can be useful to get used to this. Repetition help to make the activities recognizable and to develop a greater understanding and meaning of what this entails.
Activity plans
Here you will find ideas for what an activity plan for each category might look like. These activity plans are different, and have taken different starting points in terms of facilitation and needs. Underneath each activity plan is a blank copy that you can print out to write your own activity plan.
An activity plan structures an activity so that you know which tactile signs to focus on and use. This can be shared with others, and also use it to evaluate.
