Signing with Oliver is a story about a child who is Deaf and uses American Sign Language to communicate. He attends a residential school for the Deaf. He is looking forward to a Friday sleepover with his best friend, Derek, who is also Deaf and stays in the dorms at school as a residential student. The boys are so excited for their sleepover. In their neighborhood there isn’t anyone who uses sign language to communicate, which makes it challenging for them to make friends. In this story, students will read about the challenges that Oliver faces throughout the week, while he tries to follow the rules at home and in school so Derek can sleep over. Will he be able to stay out of trouble so Derek can sleep over?

There are 8 chapters in this product. The story is included in the first part of the product and another packet is included after the story that includes questions for each chapter.
