Sign language can help a young child excel in academics. Hearing children benefit from Signing Time because it supports early brain development. Research shows that babies who use sign language scored 8-12 points higher than their non-signing peers, when tested after second grade. Signing Time is a great early education resource because it builds literacy skills, improves spelling skills, enhances memory retention and fosters a love of learning. All Signing Time materials employ a multi-sensory approach, which draws upon the following senses: visual (sight), auditory (hearing) and tactile (touch).

Review
"During the past thirty years as an English teacher and professor, as an educational publisher and national writing consultant, and as the director of the Educational Leadership Institute, I have not seen a more powerful book on the teaching of writing. Think of this book as a gift to yourself, your colleagues, and your students. Think of it as a spark that just might initiate a renaissance in the way writing is taught." (RW (Skip) Kistner, President )
