The student is arranged in the classroom in a manner in which he can view the Hearing Impaired Educator. The instructor will ask the student to match the opposite cards. The student will also use expressive sign language to identify the basic concept-opposite terms. If the student does not know the sign for the opposite picture than the instructor will teach the sign to the student. The sign will be demonstrated several times for the student. When the instructor determines that the student is knowledgeable of the developing of the sign then she will receptively sign the terms to the student to determine if he could understand the message being relayed to him.

This artifact was chosen because it shows when students academics are correlated with the student's language of sign langauge that they will experience success. The lesson on basic concepts-opposites was a success. This goal was spread into four sessions. The signs were broken down into groups of at least ten matching pairs of opposites. Several opposite cards were presented to the student. The student was aware of at least a quarter of the words with the use of expressive sign language. The remainder of the words were taught with sign language to the student. Within the class time, the student learned the remainder of the unknown terms and the signs for each one. The lesson proved to be an effective learning experience for the student; therefore, the planning and preparation of this lesson proved to be an effective tool. In the future, I plan on continuing to plan other lessons in the same manner to ensure success for the student.
