Talking Fingers Click on "Talking Fingers" to read Felicia's latest blurb on Shelby's introduction to public school. Felicia had updated a list of her favorite resources for deaf children and families. She mentioned IP as a retreat center for deaf families. We are in the business of meeting families where they are to enrich their lives and the lives of their children. I agree with the resources she lists. They are wonderful sources for information, education, and entertainment. Felicia has also created a personal fundraising page for Isaiah's Place on Firstgiving.com. Please click above on her blog to check that out. Help her spread the word. THANKS Felicia! Reviews of children's books and other resources are ready! We can mail a hard copy or read the articles on Talking Fingers. These are wonderful for adapting books and materials for your deaf children. |

| Horsemanship Signs | |
Several people have asked for Signs they can use
for their horsemanship activities. IP uses the signs included on the slide show. Kaitlin Woodell is the young lady in the pics. She teaches young riders basic horsemanship using these signs as well as gestures, and added ASL vocabulary. Several of the deaf participants at Isaiah's Place helped construct the vocabulary. Email IP and let us know if this helps!! |
