We're busting some common myths about sign language in this podcast episode I was interviewed on. (My interview begins at 22:44 minutes into the podcast)
 
- Does sign language limit toddlers' ability to learn to talk out loud?
 
- How did I become interested in early intervention and sign language?
 
- Does teaching sign language help kids receive more positive feedback?
 
- When a child signs a word incorrectly, what should we do?
 
- Is it helpful to teach students more than one communication modality?
 
Want to listen? We talk about all these things and more in this myth-busting episode.
