🥇⭐️ LET'S DO MAKATHON 🥇⭐️
Makaton is simple sign language made up of actions and pictures which supports language. Makaton uses signs and symbols to help people communicate. It is designed to support the development of spoken language.
Makaton signs are based on the gestures used in BSL (British Sign Language – the language of the Deaf community). Makaton signs are used in conjunction with speech at all times and in English grammatical word order.
Join Chanita in the last of our series. Makaton is extremely flexible as it can be personalised to the individual’s needs and used at a level that is suitable for them. Click here to find out more about Makathon.
