to sequester signing week one day four
now this week has been all about our
introduction okay so now a common thing
that we talk about in our introductions
is how old we are so today we're gonna
talk about age and we're gonna review
numbers now we're gonna do all of the
numbers but we're gonna do the most
common ones and I'll tell you how to do
the rest of them okay
if you want to say I'm this old this is
how I old I am you go I ate so it's kind
of hard to explain so this is the sign
for old let's just start now old so you
have your hand in like this o handshape
loose oh you put it here underneath your
chin like you're holding your chin and
you pull down into the s handshape and
get my bloody hair in the way pull down
to the s handshape oh like you got like
this old man goatee like a wizard
makin Berlin old ok this is a sign for
old now if you want to say your age you
would go I'm oh and you start doing the
old and you turn your hand out and then
you do whatever the number is for your
age so you're like I'm 23 then you would
so it's like I'm just showing you 23
so I'm saying I'm 23 years old just so
you get an idea of the difference in the
movement so you go so old like saying
that cat is old and this is age age and
then you come up into the so you're
coming up and you swoop out to do the
number if you want to ask somebody how
old they are your age what so you're old
what so you do a little bit shorter so
your view learned this yesterday yeah
you learn this yesterday your age what
and you learn this a couple of days ago
what all right birthday is your extended
5 handshape so that's your 5 hand with
your middle finger pushed forward like
that and your hand is horizontal so I
touch my chin with my middle finger and
then I touched straight down to my chest
so all the other it looks like this
birthday okay so you touch your chin and
touch your chest like just right
underneath my collarbones right here and
that flat spot
birthday
now let's go over the numbers so numbers
one through five your hand is facing in
in recent years it hasn't really become
a big huge sticking point like you
really need to if you're just saying oh
I have four cats I recommend having your
hand in now if you're doing like a
serial number like a phone number a
receipt number a price those kind of
things
you can have your hand out okay
so if you're like oh my phone number is
five five five to one to one then you
would do it like that you can have your
palm out and that's totally cool all
right
hmm yeah so but normally if you're just
saying oh I've got two cats have three
dogs then you have your palm pin so one
two and we do this because this is B
this is two right three this is three
your pump your thumb is out because this
is W and this is six all right so this
is taken we don't have any more room
this is three one two three and the good
thing it's the important thing to know
about ansel numbers is you can count all
all of the numbers on one hand until you
get to a thousand okay and then okay so
you can use one hand all the way up into
a thousand so that's important to know
so one two three four regular four
thumbs tucked back in five regular five
remember these are all palm in now we're
getting to six so we flip our palms out
six so you're gonna bring your pinky and
your thumb together flat don't circle
them flat six seven is your ring finger
eight middle finger nine index finger
let's do that again six seven eight nine
six seven eight nine all right if you
get them mixed up which one to start
with
pinky is the smallest finger is the
smallest number six seven eight nine
10 is your open a handshape or your
thumbs up handshape and you twist your
wrist
10 10 all right you just do a quick
twist like that
all right now let's go 11 through 20 so
now our palm is now again facing us and
we're gonna go 11 so you're flicking
your index finger up twice say 11 11 12
you're gonna flick your both of your
fingers up 12 so I'm flicking my thumb
okay with my thumb I mean 12 so 11 12
now we get to 13 put your make a u
handshape thumb out so 1 2 3 but these
fingers are together 13 and you tap
towards you twice 13 13 11 12 13 14
four fingers are up tuck your thumb in
14 and tap again 14 13 14 okay 15 thumb
comes out 15 so now you know why it's so
important we tuck it in for 14 13 14 15
okay now we're gonna flip her hand back
around for 16 16 17 18 19 so it's the
exact same thing you just did 6 7 8 9
but you're doing a twist 16 17 18 19 do
you do to twist so for it like each
syllable if that helps you remember it
because if you hold it still then it's
just 6 7 8 9
alright so twist it 20 boom boom boom
boom
20 tap it twice it's like your tea your
two fingers and yours zero you're making
it real quick 20 now let's do 21 to 30
so we go 21 palm is facing in your hand
is that a in a gun shape finger is
facing towards the corner of the ceiling
so 45-degree angle and you're gonna bend
your thumb twice 21 21 22 make the two
handshape and go tap and then arch out
to your right if you're a right-handed
tap tap if you're left-handed it's tap
tap 22 22 22 now 23 is you have your
three hand and you go like this you
wiggle wiggle with that middle finger so
it looks like you're going to 3 2 3 2 3
2 3 really quickly but you just do it
here
23 24 is L for 24 you don't move your
hands o 24 so you're doing the 20 with
an L rather than your V ok 24 25 is your
5 handshape and you wiggle your middle
two fingers 25 so it'd be like you're
going 25 25 but we've shortened it to
this a lot easier 25 26 is l 6 27 is L
728 this l 8 29 is L 933 0-3 okay 3-0
and you just make that zero with your
330 now the rest of the numbers are
pretty easy to do you just go 30 40 50
60 70 80 90 and then all that other
numbers are just 91 90
two three they're all just the first
number the second number right in a row
you don't want to move your hand or
anything just keep it right there and
just put the two numbers together that
you want so your doubles are all the
same you know eleven is here
22 and but you treat the rest of the
double numbers the same as you 22 33 so
you tap down and then you tap out to
your right for a left-hander you tap
down out to your left
22 33 44 55 66 77 88 99 all right
tap and out so it's a little tiny little
baby urge all right that's all you need
to know for numbers for now there are
more advanced things but this is our
beginner basic foundation for being good
signers with our numbers so now when
you're gonna go practice to say how old
you are you go I'm age and then you sign
whatever number it is so you're 11
you're 23 you're 35 whatever it is you
pull down a circle out and do your
number now if your hand is gonna be
facing in you would fold down and keep
your hand
they sing out you wouldn't go oh here we
go pull down on 13 okay so it's the arch
and pull down and arch into whatever
position your hand needs to be in for
the first number okay I hope that makes
sense so you can say go so you can say
anybody's age your age go to the
practice prompt I have several different
scenarios for you to practice on getting
that age down and so you could just kind
of drill through this using a couple of
different made-up ages and your real age
definitely you want to make sure you get
your real age down but you
practice other ones just to kind of get
a feel for it alright okay have fun
