Go, Dog. Go!
Just a couple of quick notes about this video...
There are a lot of signs, but most are review.
Because they are review, I went through them only once in the video, and I did it kind of quickly. I recommend stopping the video after each sign to practice.
There are some "tricky" parts to this story. In English, we often tell about the thing that happened first as the last thing. In ASL, we have to set up the base or first thing, which supports all the rest of the things; otherwise what you sign will not be clear! So watch for those! And practice them!
Even though this is a simple story in English, it is rather long; we may not get through the whole book using our signing skills. But we'll try! It will help if you practice and are prepared!
Did I mention that you should practice? :D
