With hands flying and bodies bumping into each other, more than a few of my children remark in American Sign Language, "You need a bigger room!" "We all can't fit in here!" "Ouch my knee hit the table." Little preschoolers' sign language are hidden behind a high table. I respond with "Will you build me a bigger room?" for which giggles and heads shaking ensue. As one can imagine, Deaf students utilize their visual and kinetics skills in order to communicate. Speech/Language therapy under my tutelage encompasses much role playing, acting, and art work to enable the students to work on their sign language as well as their spoken language skills to enhance overall communication.
I have the privilege to work with all the Deaf students in a multicultural and diverse inner city elementary school. I have students who range from age 3 to 11 years of age who are not only Deaf but come from families where English is not their primary language.
