Vision and Hearing videos

The overarching message that I received from these two videos was that vision and hearing issues need to be addressed as soon as possible. As a teacher, it will be my job to help identify such problems, so that the child can get any problems corrected (if possible). It might also be important to safeguard the vision and hearing of students (picture the very young). For example: I can remember being instructed not to look at the sun during an eclipse; had that wonderful teacher of mine forgotten, I might have seriously damaged my vision looking at the strange phenomena.

  1. Philip...yes, you are so right! The earlier the intervention, the better! In your Assignent 2 work you discussed much the import of educating, informing, supporting parents about health issues. Parents are children's first and most important teachers - talk about early intervention! When we support parents, we are directly supporting children. This is the case for any level of school.
