P3/4 Sign language


For the 10th Anniversary night, we are performing the song "Can you hear me?" by Bob Chilcot. It is a song about a deaf child's experiences of the world and of communicating them to others. A small group will be singing the song and P3/4 girls will be signing it at the performance.

I have recorded the first verse with signing for the children to work on at home. I have recorded myself doing it with the opposite hand to what it should be so that the children just need to copy exactly what they see and do not need to reverse it themselves!

Here are the words to help you:

I look around me as I grow
I'd like to tell you all I know
I see life with all it's energy
The city streets, the rush of time
This is my world, it's where I like to be
So much to see, so much to find
I sometimes sit and wait a while
I see the sun, it makes me smile

Can you see it?
Can you see it too?
Can you see it?
Can you see it too?

I will record the remaining 2 verses in due course.

Good luck!
