In this video, Tara Kuhn eloquently makes the distinction between adaptations and modifications and focuses on those that may be needed to meaningfully include the deaf learner. Making use of visual aids, she provides very practical strategies to help signing children access the curriculum and understand concepts taught in class. She encourages teachers to be ingenious and think of practical methods that would work in their contexts. This video lecture 4/9 of week 3 of the course: Educating Deaf Children: Becoming an Empowered Teacher.
