This workbook, though beyond the beginning level, provides a clear format for considering how figurative language "works" without high level vocabulary and difficult syntax. Using simple vocabulary ... abulary and comprehensible context, each page has a single word that is used figuratively in two very short paragraphs (e.g. LIGHT- 1) eat a light lunch, 2) to feel light headed). Students read the paragraph, discuss the intent, provide evidence from details in the paragraph that lead to their definition of the highlighted phrase. They then illustrate the paragraph.  The Bedrock Literacy Curriculum manual is available at https://successforkidswithhearingloss.com/product/bedrock-literacy-curriculum/)

Research is clear that when children engage in serve and return interactions, activity increases in the parts of the brain responsible for listening and spoken language processing and production.Children who are deaf and hard of hearing as well as those students with limited language may struggle to increase their vocabulary because of weak auditory memory, difficulty with auditory comprehension, and lack of exposure. What's Included?28 Thanksgiving-related conversation starters, questions, and trivia topics.Answer sheet with space for data collectionFive suggested ways to playListening and Spoken Language (LSL) TipsEasy one-time prep.

This workbook contains 60 target multiple meaning words in sentences for beginning readers. Each page highlights a single English word (e.g. hard ) and uses it in two separate, contextualized sente ... tences (e.g. 1) Brian can't sleep. His bed is too hard. 2) The teacher gave a math test. It was hard ! ). The student reads each sentence. If translating to ASL, the student decides which ASL handshape was used to make the sign for the target word in each sentence. The student cuts out the related ASL Handshape from a copied page with all handshapes and pastes it in the correct box. As each sentence uses a multiple meaning for the word the handshapes used will be different-visually signifying the difference in meaning despite the same English word. Finally the student illustrates the sentence meaning. Vocabulary and sentences are kept simple to ensure cognitive energy is focused of the meaning of the word in context.The Bedrock Literacy Curriculum manual is available at https://successforkidswithhearingloss.com/product/bedrock-literacy-curriculum/)

This workbook is designed for beginning readers who are Deaf or Hard of Hearing. It provides the reader with opportunities to consider the meaning of the first type of figurative language- the "phra ... sal verb". Phrasal verbs (for example, eat out, dress up, take after, look out, etc.) can be very confusing for young readers because they are not the sum of the word meanings as separate entities. For example "get dressed" does not mean someone will literally obtain (get) a dress. Rather the phrase means "to put clothes on". In this workbook students practice this skill with 60 frequently used phrasal verbs. They will read 2-3 highly contextualized sentences that are written with beginning vocabulary. Students then discuss the meaning of the target phrasal verb. They will identify the ASL sign handshape used to produce the phrasal verb (for example, GET-DRESS uses the 5 handshapes). They cut out the 5 handshape and paste it in a box on the worksheet. Finally, students will illustrate the correct meaning of the target phrasal verb as used in the sentences. A pre and posttest scoring grid is included for progress monitoring.  The Bedrock Literacy Curriculum manual is available at https://successforkidswithhearingloss.com/product/bedrock-literacy-curriculum/)
