It is National Deaf Awareness Week! This week the Teachers of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing at ESU 16 will be sharing some TIPS for when you are visiting with your hard of hearing students, friends or family members.
Monday's Tip Of The Day: Your student, friend or family member will find it easier to speechread if you avoid chewing gum, avoid putting papers or your hands in front of your face and if you have one, keeping your mustache well-trimmed.
Lou made charts!
