Fancy learning a bit of musical Makaton? 🎼🥁👌 Makaton is vital method of communication used by many families and health professionals at GOSH. Play worker Ellie is here to teach you the chorus of ‘We’re All In This Together’ from High School Musical in Makaton – why not 'sign to sing' and learn a new skill in lockdown? 📻 Have you got the moves? Record your own Makaton rendition of this singalong classic and share with us below – we’ll share our favourites on our Stories! 💗 | Great Ormond Str

For our #Makaton Topic series - here is the updated version of the #Fingerspelling #Alphabet. Some very minor changes were introduced to the fingerspelling alphabet a little while ago to all tutors at #Makaton tutor training to make the spelling more uniform. They are shown here - namely, the full-hand version of C, the full-hand version of P, the closed-hand S and the open-handed Y. P & C are now only signed in the index/thumb version when they feature as part of a concept - eg. Pizza or Coffee

Here’s a little goodbye song to help you practise your #Makaton fingerspelling alphabet too - enjoy! | Singing Hands

So today’s #Makaton topic video is all about TIME ⏰ 🗓 These are really useful concepts especially now as none of us know what day or month it is yet are always needing to talk about what is happening & when 🤣 Hope this helps.
