Friday, 29 May 2009

A parent of two Deaf children with cochlear implants shares her view about the value of the bilingual approach, including participating in the Shared Reading Project (SRP).

She advocates for the type of bilingual instruction that allowed her daughter to advance two grade levels ahead of the normal grade level for her age.
