LESSON 3 OF 12
Your objective
Read the handshape and placement sections of the chart.
Understand the idea
The chart has two parts: consonant handshapes and vowel placements and movements. The hand drawings identify eight shapes; the people show where placements and movement paths are located. A static chart cannot demonstrate the full timing and depth of natural cueing.
8 handshapes · placements · movements
Use the drawings as a reference, then learn coordinated movement with a skilled cuer.
