Talking without words

Nursery World, 27 April 1995

How do you teach a deaf child the meaning of abstract words such as cross, sad or stupid? Helen Saunders visits a school in Birmingham which believes it has found the answer to the question with the help of a puppet called Nathan

The first few weeks of this protect were very moving as we watched our deaf pupils experience what it felt like to really understand something in the same way as their hearing peers

The Boy and the yellow Bird .... and beyond

Animations, June/July 1997

Working closely with two deaf consultants we created and presented non-verbal scenarios to a mixed group of hearing and deaf children. The wonderful thing about it was that it appealed to both. We were inspired by their immediate responses and how - over the project - the children started to change from seeing moral issues in black and white terms when talking about acceptable behaviour.
