HANDWRITING Children who cannot hear may use sign language for communication. Sign language uses the hands to send information and the eyes to receive them. It is a visual manual language system with its own sentence structure and word order. Usually, words are signed and spoken at the same time. Using this method for young children with disabilities is sometimes referred to as total communication. Although using sign language is important for communication, it can also be an adventure for everyone. ALL THE BEST 8
