Fran, that book you mentioned that has science terminology and other
such; kindly give me all the info you can on it. Not long ago, a lady
in Yuma, Arizona ( I don't know why anyone wants to live there either)
asked me to make a videotape of myself using science terms. She was
not proficient in signing but tried to do the best she could. She works
ina mainstreaming program there (I commend her on her heart and efforts-heck
of a lot better than some I see in bigger towns). I any case, all I
had was myself and my imagination to help her and some advice. But
you are talking about an actual book with this stuff. That will help
a lot. There was sucha book years back.it never really caught on.

Instructionales something, I think. At CSUN I came up with 800 new
signs for science and other technical terms. I just wonder if any of
them show up in the book. I did mine as part of a scholarship/workstudy
requirement.
