Skyler has a hearing loss. And he doesn’t feel much like talking today. No wonder—he keeps missing what his parents and siblings have to say, and it’s frustrating. Skyler’s little sister, Maizy, tags
...y, tags along on his morning routine and, with the help of her special friend, we learn that it takes more than hearing aids to help Skyler feel like talking again.This 35-page full color children’s book by Audiologist Jim Bombicino provides avenues for discussion and building vocabulary by highlighting the difficulties that students may face each day, including mishearing and misunderstanding information, the effect of background noise, and consequential frustration and confusion that can happen when the ease of daily communication is taken for granted by typically hearing persons. In this case, the story follows a young boy as he awakens and prepares for a typical school day.This video version includes audio of the text read by actors, while their voices are filtered to imitate how Skyler hears through his hearing aids! Listening situations include a speaker with added background noise, simultaneous speakers, a speaker talking too quickly, and mishearing words—all heard as they come through Skyler’s hearing devices. Perfect for helping teachers, families, and classmates understand what a hearing loss might be like. Finally put typically hearing adults and children in the shoes of the child with hearing loss!Video download can be accessed on any device.

This is a story to help children/students who wear hearing aids understand why they may go to the doctor and/or ENT more often than others. The story can be read for comprehension. It teaches new voca
...bulary and creates a wonderful language opportunity for students to better advocate for themselves at school, home, and the doctor/ENT office. This story was written with younger children and their families and older students who continue to come to school with blocked hearing aids and do not use an interpreter for language access.Good Service Activity for EI-ECSE FamiliesFor any family this story can be an important conversation starter, or reminder, to understand the language impact of even partially clogged hearing aids for their kid(s) who are not using signs. This can be demonstrated to parents by using a listening tube when their child’s hearing aid is plugged and cleaned and then having them listen again to the difference in clarity of language coming through the hearing aid to their child’s brain.Additional Comprehension ActivitiesReading Comprehension QuestionsLists of tier 1 + 2 related vocabGame board to make it fun or help that wiggly off-task child stay focusedNew Concept for Older Kids: What are “endonyms”Story Printable OptionPrint each two-page spread in landscape mode OR - Print a two-page spread but cut apart pages to show 1 page at a time.
