Dancing with Words - Signing for Hearing Children's Literacy
A book by Dr. Marilyn Daniels If you want to read in depth about both the research and how to apply it, borrow this book from your local library or buy it from Amazon. It is one of the most comprehensive works on the topic. Here is what one Amazon customer has to say about Dancing with Words: "Dr. Marilyn Daniels has written an exceptional book which should be read by parents/guardians of young children, want-to-be parents, day care providers, and teachers of the young. As the foremost researcher on Sign's benefits for hearing kids, not only does she write about her own research, but the research others have done with Sign and hearing kids too. The book's title seems somewhat limiting, because it also mentions the many other benefits Sign has been found to have for hearing kids - even if they never use it with the deaf. Daniels also points out that parents and teachers who teach kids Sign often feel they, the parents and teachers, benefit too. And the book has a chapter on how teachers can easily learn Sign to teach their students, and a chapter on how parents can easily learn Sign to teach it to their kids." Contact Us |
