TEACHING CHILDREN WITH HEARING IMPAIRMENT
- Use very simple words and sentences together with gestures and illustrative pictures to
help enhancing their understanding about what you are talking. Children with hearing
problem could learn from seeing more than listening even though both are being applied.

answering your questions

learning objective
• Lets the kids start with what they can do, before moving to next step let’s re-do the
easy tasks once more time to make sure they don’t have problems; for example:
drawing circle shape, kids able to color the circle shape before moving to next step to
make the circle shape by connecting the points, then copying the circle shape from
elsewhere and so on.
