Movement, Gesture and Sign: The Video

Synopsis: Staff at the Royal Blind School, in conjunction with Scottish Sensory Centre and the Educational Television Unit of Moray House in Edinburgh, have produced a video that is a practical guide to movement, gesture and signing. It shows examples of the pupils movement communication programmes, their use of personal gesture and of the Canaan/Barrie signs, both in one to one sessions and in everyday environments. The second part of the video demonstrates the 150 signs and ways in which to use them.
The video was produced to supplement both two Movement, Gesture and Sign booklets.
