Lesson on creating ASL A to Z Stories

What are A to Z Stories in ASL? • A to Z or ABC’s storytelling in ASL is the art of telling a story using each of the manual alphabet in order. • For example, “A” handshape for knocking on the door, “B” handshape for opening the door, “C” handshape for searching something and so on.

ABC or A-Z Story in ASL • ABC stories are used as entertainment in the Deaf communities, and are part of the ASL literature/ASL storytelling. Also, they’re used as an educational tool for developing deaf children’s language • A story using the sign language alphabet that fits into the storyline. • Number stories – They’re similar to ABC stories, but use ASL numbers instead of alphabet. • One handshape stories

One-Handshape Stories • In one-handshape stories the performer narrates a story or poem using only signs in a single handshape.

Handshape Story • Using one handshape for the entire story. • Example: https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=7 o 1 hh. G 9 KJ 2 k • One handshape story by Terrylene

ABC Stories in ASL • Watch video clips of ABC Stories in ASL • https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=Ob. Ol 9 Rc 4 Jrs • https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=qj 1 MQh. Xf. VJg • https: //www. pinterest. com/pin/308355905711093875/

ABC Stories • The form of ABC stories is traditional, but the stories themselves vary. • The most common types are risqué, humorous, or horror stories, especially among young people, but they may also relate to everyday experiences in a way that entertains and delights the listener. • ABC stories may be passed on from one group to another, often with creative alterations or new twists.

Tips for Developing an ABC Story • Keep in mind that ASL poetry is an art so some rules may be bent a bit to make it “work” with flow and logic. • Forget English grammar order.

How far can you go from A to Z? • • Work with your groups of 4 -5 and create an ABC story as far as you can go until Z. Choose one student to demonstrate to the class. • Topics for creating an ABC Story: – – – Car Race Olympics Sports Going to a Movie Theatre Haunted House College Life Party Wedding Camping Hunting and many more. .
