If you are a teacher of Deaf children, you have most likely made your own Family Books to introduce your students to the names of their family members. It is a lot of work making and producing those books for each student each year. Now, you have it already done for you with these reproducible books.
Parents: This is one of the first essential steps in your child’s education . It is important that they can receptively and expressive identify all their extended family members, friends, teachers, etc. These materials will help you start that process. Simply copy the pages in the curriculum. Then take digital, polaroid or other pictures of each person. Cut out sign names from the Sign Name Packet for each one. Glue picture and sign name in the book and write the name in the spaces provided. Then sit down with your child and go through each page delete as often and long as your child will sit still with you.
It is the beginning of school and one of the first tasks for your new class or student is learning the names of the personnel and staff at school that will be interacting with them. Assign the work to your aid? Now you don’t have too! It is all done for you! Just purchase the level of School Curriculum that fits your group (for some that will mean all three – the Infant, Pre-School and Kindergarten levels!) Not to worry. They are all reproducible! You will invest one time and never have to do it again! Just honor the copyright. The copyright specifies that it can be reproduced only by the teacher who purchased it for her classroom – now and forever.
*-The former Grade Level indicators of Infant, Pre-school and Kindergarten have been changed to Beginning, Intermediate and Advanced, respectively, because this facilitates their use in higher grade level classrooms.
