7A learn British Sign Language for Community Week

Mr Bargiela's Year 7 tutor group showed how well they could work as a team. Mr Bargiela explains what they achieved during Community Week:

"During Community week, 7A (A for awesome) learnt British Sign Language (BSL), the premise was to reach all parts of our community in Kings Langley and being part of the Communications Department (Modern Foreign Languages) I thought it appropriate for the students to engage with this language. The students made it their mission to learn the alphabet, numbers and some basics such as introducing themselves and giving their age. During the weeks activities, they taught the sixth formers that had been attached to us how to sign also. Using the resources given to them some of the students even learned how to tell stories. Finally at the end of the week during assembly, every student from 7A, led by Deanna Coe, gave a presentation in BSL to rest of the year group. A wonderful achievement by an awesome tutor group!"
