Choose FOUR UNIQUE pieces of sports EQUIPMENT to sign about (Each piece must model a unique Instrumental Classifier. For example, you canNOT sign about 4 different rackets).
Sign the sport in which a piece of equipment is used.
Name the piece of equipment, fingerspelling if necessary.
Then sign the instrumental classifier that would be used for that piece of equipment by fingerspelling C-L and showing the handshape used.
Finally, create an ASL sentence that uses the Instrumental classifier appropriately, following all the rules outlined in your ASL grammar notes.
Remember, you may NOT use BASKETBALL since that was provided in the example. You do have the freedom to add original information if that helps you use the instrumental classifiers appropriately.
Complete the template below with the ASL gloss of your sports equipment. (Remember: ASL ≠ English. Depending on the sentence, you may need to add concepts like indexing or delete concepts like articles to your gloss. USE the resources for accurate demos.) It may not be necessary to use all the boxes given, and you have the freedom to add additional columns such as TIME or NEGATION or rows if needed.
