ASL Homeschool Curriculum: How to Teach American Sign

The School House homeschool program provides a structured, interdisciplinary foundation that families can pair with American Sign learning activities. Its curriculum includes parent-facing training, printables, and eight-week sessions that can help organize the school day. Because the provided program details do not identify ASL as a standalone subject, families should plan dedicated sign-language resources and practice alongside the core curriculum.

The homeschool program offers the American Emergent Curriculum for Pre-K through 8th grade, serving learners roughly ages 3 through 12. Lessons are organized into eight-week sessions intended to support deeper study rather than rapid topic changes. Parents can use the curriculum pages and educator films to prepare lessons appropriate to their child’s stage of development.

Enrollment includes the complete curriculum in eight-week sessions, more than 400 educator training films, printables and lesson materials, Transparent Classroom progress and portfolio tools, live weekly educator support, and access to The School House member community. A digital welcome box is also provided at signup. Physical TSH Materials Boxes are optional purchases and are not included in the base subscription.

The monthly plan is $125 per learner for 10 monthly payments during the school year. The annual plan is $1,200 per learner, paid once for the full school year. Both options include the same curriculum, training films, printables, progress tools, live support, and member community access. Pricing is per child, and optional physical materials boxes cost extra.

Parents begin by reviewing the curriculum pages and educator training films before presenting lessons in a prepared home environment. The training library contains more than 400 films designed to explain lesson delivery. Families also receive live weekly educator and founder support sessions, recorded Q&As, scheduled office hours, and community access for added guidance during the school year.

No. The program is described as screen-minimal and centers on parent-led learning, printables, lesson materials, and prepared home environments. Digital tools support the parent through training films, live sessions, community access, and Transparent Classroom progress tracking. Children can spend learning time engaged with hands-on materials, conversation, reading, writing, and activities rather than relying on screens alone.

The School House uses Transparent Classroom as its online progress and portfolio-tracking tool. Parents can document learning and maintain a personalized record through the TSHA reporting approach. This helps families keep organized evidence of completed work and growth across the year. Parents should also confirm the homeschool documentation requirements for their own state, district, or umbrella program.

Yes. Enrolled families have access to live weekly educator support sessions and Q&As, with recordings available for later review. The program also offers separately scheduled live office hours, ongoing podcasts, weekly emails, bi-weekly newsletters, and a paid members community. A free Mighty Networks community is available to anyone seeking peer connection and idea-sharing.
