The Benefits of Teaching Sign Language to Children
Howard Gardner, psychologist and educator, established himself as an expert on the topic of intelligences. Gardner’s Theory of Intelligences has had a profound impact on the thinking and practices in education. Teaching young children sign language utilizes the 7 Multiple Intelligences coined by Dr. Gardner:
- Linguistic: You always say the word that you are signing.
- Logical-Mathematical: Children see the pattern of language and how it is formed.
- Spatial: Children see the signs being created.
- Bodily-Kinesthetic: Signing involves the movement of hands, students can ‘feel’ the words.
- Musical: It is easy to add signs to familiar songs and nursery rhymes.
- Interpersonal: Children can sign with a teacher, parent, or friends.
- Intrapersonal: Children sign during pretend play, while listening to a story, or playing on their own.
