It’s time for another set of free printable flashcards! I hope you all are enjoying these, because I love sharing them with you!

This week, we’re offering a set of free flashcards for learning the American Sign Language alphabet!

Even if you don’t know anyone who’s deaf or hard or hearing, you can still use sign language with your kids, particularly babies and toddlers.

We love American Sign Language in our family, so we’ve been teaching it to the kids from a young age.

Around here, Piglet is showing an interest in signing now. She tries to sign prayers and songs along with us.

When she does something to one of her siblings, she generally apologizes by signing “Sorry”. It’s too cute! 

Keep reading to see how to get your set. And, see how to grab a deluxe sign language alphabet printable learning cards set from my store too!

When you’re first learning sign language, using questions can be kind of awkward. First, they nearly always appear at the end of a sentence, which is weird to English speakers.

Example: “Where did you eat last night?”

In ASL, you would sign: “Last night, you eat where?” (Or something similar)

So it can be kind of strange using them. But once you get the hang of it, you’ll be signing questions all over the place! Read on to learn more about how to ask questions in sign language!

How to Ask Questions in Sign Language

This video includes a lesson in how to sign these common question words:

• Who
• What
• Where
• Why
• When
• How
• What’s up

I also talk a little about how these question words are used. For example, “What’s up?” in sign language is often used as an informal greeting, just as it is in English. (“Hey! What’s up?) But it’s also used to ask for more information or for an explanation of a concept.

So you might see a sentence signed like this: “That book, what’s up?” – which means “What is that book about?” Or you might see this: “Before happen, what’s up?” – which means “Tell me about what happened earlier.” In English, “What’s up” is still considered slang, but it’s perfectly proper grammar in ASL!

Take a look at the video to see more about how to use question words in sign language!
