Talking Hands Goes to School

This was the fun part. I spent a couple of days at the Haberdasher's Aske's Hatcham College (secondary school) to develop and test Talking Hands. (This name incidentally came to me during the first day there) The girls were fantastically helpful, enthusiastic and supportive. We came up with a bunch of game ideas on how to play with the little hands. Such as "Sign Scrabble", "Handy Hang-Man", I Have Signs in My Basket" and I Spy with Signs. We have decided that the rules should be loose and based on democratic principles. This is consistent with the ethos of my Cooperation Project. (read previous entries)
