  • Lip-reads and speech reads, articulates using a clear voice with appropriate volume to be heard in the setting and shows feeling and intent of the speaker by using intonation, pitch and voice modulation.

  • Voice interprets accurately from the source language of American Sign Language or Manually Coded English to a hearing person in the target language of spoken English.
  • Mouths the message of the speaker using complete and accurate English grammar.
  • Interprets English idioms so that interpretation is conceptually accurate.

  • Fingerspells accurately and at an appropriate rate.
  • Pantomimes or gestures when appropriate.
  • Expresses facially and appropriately different types of questions.
  • Enhances interpretation through facial expression appropriate to the mood, spirit and intent of the speaker.
