An app for learning how to sign basic vocabulary, based on Israeli Sign Language (ISL), for the purpose of expressing needs and ideas.
Unique Features:

- Each sign appears in the video along with the spoken word, the written word, and a familiar symbol (SymbolStix* - used in many special education schools for communication)
- Vocabulary for preschool and elementary aged children
- Categories are classified by color for easy recognition and efficiency
- Each video is structured according to the first stages of language development – each video contains the word as a one-word stage and as a two-word stage. For example, the video for "dog" will have a clip signing "dog" followed by the sign for "big dog"/
- Options to add categories, videos, and to share with others
