Unit 2: Getting Started
How does this fit into the lesson? 

Colors: When you are getting started to learn a language you typically learn the colors in that language. This fits under the objective: engage in basic conversation on a variety of topics. It will also help you in the next lesson when we learn classroom objects (how to describe them).

Initialized Signs: This fits under the objective: improve the familiarity with ASL grammar and structure. 

Slide 4 - Slide

Prior lesson:
We discussed the 5 parameters of ASL. You will use the 5 parameters when learning colors today. Make sure when we are learning each color you identify the 5 parameters of that sign in order to sign it correctly. Many of the colors have the same handshape, but may differ in the other parameters.
