The curriculum activities guide for severely retarded deaf children describes activities appropriate for preschool and primary students (7-to-11-years-old), for intermediate and vocational students (12-to-24-years-old), or for both. Activities which incorporate the method of total communication, are focused on communications skills, fingerspelling, numbers, colors, basic vocabulary, and art skills. For each activity, the author describes its purpose, provides directions, and lists necessary materials. Suggested are such activities as balloon play, color matching, dressing the stick figure, name recognition, a nature walk, learning phone numbers and addresses, and making Christmas books, paper weights, and straw paintings.
