Ayudar a los niños sordos

Following the success of the English edition of Helping children who are deaf, Hesperian is working to produce the Spanish edition, Ayudar a los niños sordos. This groundbreaking book, developed in collaboration with communities from around the world, provides practical and comprehensive strategies for maximizing the communication of children who do not hear well.

Topics include: why young children need to learn a spoken or signed language, and how to teach them; assessing how much a child can hear; developing communication, listening and social skills; supporting parents; educating a deaf child; preventing child sexual abuse and preventing deafness.
