Abstract	The paper addresses problems teachers of the severely hearing impaired have in being bimodal (speech plus signs) English role models as well as in using American Sign Language. The project described in this paper centers around inservice training and in-class demonstrations of the use of a modified form of Signed English to provide a visual presentation of English as the primary language of the classroom. The typical signing behavior of teachers in total communication programs is illustrated through examples from a videotape. The major portion of the document consists of appendixes which serve as a manual for implementing a similar approach. Appendix A lists the 12 general goals of the Total Communication Project. Appendix B presents eight inservice lesson plans concerned with: (1) sign markers, affixes, and contractions; (2) facial expressions and body language; (3) body and gaze shifting; (4) fingerspelling; (5) classifiers; (6) locatives; (7) indexic referencing and localization; and (8) directionality. Appendix C provides a glossary of affixes and sign markers while Appendix D does the same with contractions. The final appendix lists 19 resources with descriptive abstracts. (DB)
