HOWE CENTER-BASED SPECIAL EDUCATION MUSIC LESSON #7 JUNE 1-5

This week we will learn a new song with sign language called “One Small Voice.” Listen to the song a few times then record you and your family (using Screencastify link) doing the sign language together while the video is playing from 1:57-END. Make sure that your face and hands can be clearly seen in the video. I look forward to seeing you all!
