Language & Literacy Enrichment Program for Preschoolers
8 week session

One thing Melissa has certainly learned through her years of teaching...Preschoolers LOVE
learning sign language...and they pick it up so quickly! Signing with hearing children is extremely
worthwhile.  Its hands-on nature engages children while helping them expand their vocabularies ,
enhance reading skills, and strengthen fine motor skills.  Plus, they will be learning a new,
real
language.  How cool is that!   

Melissa offers sign language classes for 3-5 year olds in her Sign Along! Studio.  Children love
the interactive activities including music, movement, games, arts and crafts, and more! Signs for
animals, colors, letters, food, and playtime will be learned.   1 hour class.

Dates: Not offered at this time
Location: Sign Along! Studio, Plymouth
Price: $120 includes all materials
