For our professional development session, we will have a presentation on using American Sign Language at storytime, with step by step lessons on common phrases that will be popular. The session begins at 10am with presenter Kathy MacMillan, and will end at Noon. This two-hour webinar is called Little Hands Signing in Storytime, covering the benefits of using ASL in storytime for all children, making storytime more fun, educational, and participative. MacMillan is a certified ASL interpreter, librarian, and storyteller. She is the author of several books, including the Little Hands Signing series from Familius Press. Her website is StoriesByHand.com.
