PROJECT EDUCATION
When you think of education these days, equality should come to mind. Children know and understand things that they can see or hold, but what about conditions that a child can't see? Would your child understand something they can't feel or look at? How can your child learn about the over 28 million people in the United States with a substantial hearing loss? With a number like that, it's important that your students grasp what deafness and Deaf Culture is and how to interact with people who are deaf or hard of hearing.
That's where Deaf Expressions comes in!
Our one-hour presentation, Project Education, is jam-packed with information for your elementary or middle school students to learn and enjoy. Topics discussed include:
Myths versus facts
Deaf Culture
Etiquette
Lipreading/speechreading
Sign Language
Causes of hearing loss
Much, much more!
Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to share this culture and way of living with your school! Everyone involved will be better people for it!
To schedule your school's presentation, email us at DeafExpressions05@gmail.com or TEXT us at 616-516-6314.
"Prejudices, it is well known, are most difficult to eradicate from the heart whose soil has never been loosened or fertilized by education; they grow there, firm as weeds among rocks." ~Charlotte Bronte
