Synopsis

Structured lessons for advancing language and numeracy in the deaf classroom. This second part continues the difficult but essential task of building strong language skills, with practical steps and clear progression for both teachers and pupils.

The work expands on earlier material by addressing how to introduce more advanced language concepts, including numbers, fractions, and abstract nouns, while balancing concrete practice with broader grammatical forms. It emphasizes careful pacing, concrete demonstrations, and opportunities for repetition to reinforce understanding. The edition aims to help teachers navigate which topics to teach first and how to sequence lessons for maximum comprehension.

• Numbers, including cardinal and ordinal forms, with practical examples and exercises.
• Fractions and basic math terminology tied to everyday contexts.
• Techniques for teaching abstract nouns and nuanced verb forms without overwhelming the pupil.
• Approaches to introducing relative pronouns and complex clauses in a measured way.

Ideal for educators and students using this classic language-building framework, especially in settings focused on Deaf education and instruction.
