Learning Makaton

We have been learning all about how actions are used to communicate with people who are hearing impaired. We have learnt that these actions are called Makaton. During group time we have been learning how to sign the song “Three little Monkeys”. The following pictures are the signs used in the song. It would be great if you could ask your child about signing (actions) and encourage them to practise with you at home.
