I came across a thread in AD with this link and I thought this should be in CI section as well.. (Thanks Shel!)
This is a PDF titled "Children with Cochlear Implants Who Sign: Guidelines for
Transitioning to Oral Education or a Mainstream Setting"
http://www.childrenshospital.org/clinicalservices/Site2143/Documents/transition.pdf
I thought parents of ci kids (who haven't gone mainstream or oral deaf edu. yet) would want to see this as well... Keep in mind the Guideline was developed for NE area schools and Guideline may be different in other states though...
If you want to discuss "Language vs Speech then go to Shel's thread over at;
http://www.alldeaf.com/deaf-education/49782-language-vs-speech.html
Otherwise, this thread is about the guideline in whole. so let's keep it seperate...thanks!
