Gavin in his Daddy's shoes. Gavin has some big shoes to fill!
This information is from Hearts for Hearing! I found it helpful.


Be a bird Dog!
point out sounds: I hear that!

Be a Director
direct the child to "listen!"

Hear it BEFORE you see it
audition first , direct attention toward the object,use the hand cue

Play By Play
use familiar phrases, be a radio commentator

It's your turn
EXPECT a response from your child, pause and wait for response,use the hand cue to indicate turn, use auditory closure,someone else to model

Keep' em on their toes!
use sabotage

Make it Easier
control the listening environment, move closer, use acoustic highlighting

Create a Listening Sandwich
listen-cue-listen

Beyond the Here and Now
extend and expand the child's utterances
Help me, but Don't tell me
give support, ask for or provide more info, suggest opposite/rhyming words

What did you hear?
nonjudgmental way of learning what the child heard and understood
