Sentence Shaping for deaf or hard of hearing children
Part of Brain & nervous system, Ear, nose & throat clinical trials.
This trial tests a new way to help children who are deaf or hard of hearing improve their sentence writing skills. It focuses on children who use both spoken English and American Sign Language and need extra help with word order and grammar.
