How do people who are born deaf as in not hearing learn sign language?

I'm not deaf, but I work at a school in Mexico teaching sign language. Most of my students were born deaf, or lost their hearing at a very young age. The way we teach them here is by starting with simple concrete objects. You point at a tree, then show them the sign for tree. Or you point at the color red and show them the sign for the word red. Once they start understanding that everything has a sign, they'll start asking you about signs. After awhile you teach them the alphabet and numbers, and go from there.

When deaf people who can hear talk to hearing people do they get the message that sign language is less important?

There is no such thing as as deaf person that can hear, unless you're talking about a hard-of-hearing person, or a person who is legally deaf but has some hearing. In that case, a person talks to another person in a common language, whether it be sign language or vocal language.In these situations, I don't think there's any implication that sign language is less important.


What is a person that does sign language is called?
