Reading as a weakness

I thought that it was really neat to put into perspective on how kids decipher what they read. I had never given it much thought to it before until Cathy brought up the words that tend to stick out to kids and how it changes their perception of information when they read as opposed to having visual cues. To be honest is almost makes me wonder if I am a good reader haha. I thought the group activities on Monday were very helpful into giving insight on how to better represent information to Deaf children. Everyone did a really good job with their tasks!

  1. This is a great point! To add to your comment above, think about also how our brain works. When speaking/signing with someone else, one participant of the conversation may interpreting a statement differently then the other, also thoughts constantly altering. If someone were to bring up a point which was "random/off track" this can pertain to how we read and what selective reading we all have, or what a deaf child is challenged with when learning.
