Hi Signers!

Today we reviewed the whole alphabet and fingerspelled our names. We went
over majors, numbers 1-20, and colours. We also shared a whole load of
favourite silly signs, like Shakespeare (you shake your hand!), awkward,
and T-Rex. To review or look up new signs, check out ASL
Browser<http://aslbrowser.commtechlab.msu.edu/browser.htm>or SIgning
Savvy <http://www.signingsavvy.com/>.

Welcome to all our new members! We've added everyone from the Org Fair to
the list, but if you know anyone who might like to be on the list and is
not, let us know! As always, feel free to bring friends to meetings, even
if they haven't joined the club yet.

For anyone who is interested, here an article about the news story brought
up today in meeting about sign names.

Take care,
Emily and Madeleine, Secretaries
