Fishing Around the World

Yet again, it's been a while since the last blog, time just keeps getting away from us. We're all ticking along days, rolling into weeks, then months, and before we know it, we'll be into the summer holidays.

Isobel is going from strength to strength, great school reports, calmer and more mature behaviour and according to her music teacher - singing in tune. This singing is quite amazing to us, as both of her hearing parents can't really do this!

As I have said so many times, she is such a happy, smiley child these days. She is really understanding humour right now, I love the sound of her laughter, it is so infectious!

AVT continues, we're looking at where people come from, where they live, introducing new vocabulary such as sports. Learning -ing words and playing lots and lots of 'Go Fish!' 




Here Isobel and Estella talk with Daddy about different countries they know and the people that might live or come from there.

Here Isobel is learning about different types of sports, asking for specific sports and using -ing verbs. (If you have the volume up loud enough, you'll hear a supportive 'Good Job' from Estella!)

On my last blog, I posted a video about the inspirational Long brothers. This time I've drawn inspiration from Rachel Coleman, founder of Signing Time. This video was posted on the Parents of Children who are Deaf or HOH group. It's an amazing story and reflection of discovering her child was deaf at 1 year old and how life changed because of it. She's the kind of Mum I hope to be like, when I grow up!
