Many deaf kids  and this is not getting to deaf blind kids just yet  learn to read in a completely different language than they learned to speak in, since ASL is not at all the same, syntactically, as spoken English. can hear with strong hearing aids  have at least an inkling of spoken English.

It's hard to teach pronouns to kids who learned ASL as a first language because the idea of "you" being relative is confusing [they think the pronoun they should use to refer to themselves is "you" because that's what everyong else says]. Many people who are deaf blind use a different version of sign language called deaf blind manual which allows the signs to be felt on the hand of the person you are speaking with.<br><br>As far as how this relates to deaf blind kids, I know less. I've gone to DB link in the past but it has some new java app that is cruel to my browser.
