When to use this goal

For signing students who give presentations, book talks, or reports in ASL, with an interpreter voicing for hearing classmates. Present levels in signed discourse decide fit.

Baseline
Score one presentation or recorded talk with a fluent signer. Ask the interpreter about pacing.
Tips
Meet with the interpreter ahead of time to share names and terms. The student presents in ASL as peers present in English.
Limits
The rubric does not score content knowledge. ASL is a complete language; this template measures one access or language skill, and the student's broader language goals belong in expressive and receptive language with sign as the mode.
