Sharjah School

This is a Science teacher next to her classwork. I liked the formulas mixed in with the Arabic writing.
This is a picture of a speech/ listening class. They are all standing on a sound board with no shoes on. The teacher has a microphone that is hooked to speakers underneath the board. She uses hand gestures (not Signs) to imitate what sounds to use when speaking. She says a sentence and the students repeat it.

The next three are of a world history class. I really liked this class. They all had questions and were interested about learning more about the USA. We discussed where I was from and where the American School for the Deaf was. They would use Sign Language but were encouraged to speak as well. There Signs looked so familiar, but I was unable to understand them without the use of an interpreter (staff personel). There was one Deaf staff member and one Sign Language specialist. The rest of the teachers were hearing and used les signs and more voice as the students went up in grades. Interesting!
