Do you work in a mainstream school and have a deaf or hard of hearing (DHH) student in your classroom or on your caseload? Find out more about the fundamentals of working with DHH students at our one-day conference: language1st.org/events/deaf-st…
When ASL hits your eye 🎵 And you don’t have to try 🎶 That’s language access 🎵
#LanguageDeprivation happens to so many Deaf people. If you’ve never heard of this harmful phenomenon, check out @Communica1st & @languagefirst!
Note to nondisabled people from disabled people: Why are your needs “human” and our needs “special?” Ableism.
May is Language and Communication month! I love this image from @languagefirst . As a Speech-Language Pathologist working with DHH children, this message rings so true. No matter the route- through the ears, eyes, or hands, language happens in the brain! #IamSHBC @speechhearbc
Deaf children reserve the right to remove their listening device(s) at any point and for any reason. It’s their body.
We should infuse Deaf kids with the same awe and admiration for ASL that we spread around the internet.
Hearing sound is not the same as hearing it ✨clearly✨ Hearing devices do not provide perfect clarity of sound. - Dr. Sarah Sparks, a deaf audiologist
1/2 There appears to be a bit of confusion about my post. Some turned this into a BSL v Makaton. My post is about an organisation who are in my view, are defrauding people into believing they are being taught sign language. When in fact they are being taught made up signs.

The fact that Language deprivation still exists in 2022 shows the sad state of #DeafEd. ASL doesn’t hurt. Not being able to communicate does. #BilingualEd @languagefirst
In the middle of crying and screaming, I was still able to ask her questions and for her to answer. This helps so much to regulate overwhelming emotions. I just wish every child had this opportunity. @languagefirst
Language and the ability to stress what you need to SOOOO important. This is why I have taught and used sign with both kids before they could speak. For example, last night Carli was tired and done. In her defense, mom had missed bedtime grading papers.
Ugh…having to explain to OTs on FB why using ASL as a range of motion exercise when you do not sign is disrespectful… like you wouldn’t use French to improve oral motor skills.
If an English-German interpreter is hired, would we say they’re there just for the German person? Of course not. They’re there for both the German and English speakers. If an ASL-English interpreter is hired, why do we say they’re there just for the Deaf person? 🤔
Hello. Enjoy my new bootleg meme.
Recently read a thread in which linguists debated how inhumane it would be to force children into language deprivation…meanwhile massive numbers of deaf children are raised in severe language deprivation constantly. It isn’t a ‘what if’ topic. It’s happening.
Hearing people are like joke-panicking about the fact that 2022 is pronounced “2020, too”. But like in ASL, 2022 loosely translates to “BIRD go PEACE-PEACE” and that’s honestly the energy I’m going into the new year with. Deaf people stay winning I guess. 😎
Again with the sign language gloves? How many times do we have to go through this one?
