Sign language is being taught in a Prep classroom on the Gold Coast to ensure hearing impaired students can communicate with their peers.
Miami State School (MSS) teacher Brittany Keenan has undertaken an Auslan course and works closely with the Special Education Team to enable her to differentiate her teaching to better cater for students’ learning needs. She also models inclusive education for her students by: promoting, modelling and valuing acceptance among students both inside and outside the classroom. MSS Head of Learning Kathy Spencer says Brittany has an enthusiasm that is infectious and engages young children. |
