Signing Space
It is important to remember that you are not confined to the sign space immediately in front of your body during conversation. Sign space is only limited by how far your arms can reach. The bigger your message or the crowd you’re signing too, the more of your sign space you use. Here are some examples:
- Yelling
- Signing from a stage
- Extreme excitement
Medium group or Slightly Strong Message
- Signing in a classroom
- Singing to a group
Small Group or Normal Message
- Small group
- Normal conversation size
One-on-One or Private Conversation
- Personal/Quiet Signing
