Ling 6 responses!

Woo Hoo, Sean "turned to" and was able to discriminate 4 Ling 6 sounds Wednesday morning!!! This is a big deal and is important as Sean "learns to listen."

What are Ling 6?

The Ling 6 sound test allows a quick and easy way to check and see that a child detects these sounds that lie within the speech spectrum of hearing. Ling 6 sounds are used daily with D/HOH children, as they help detect malfunctions with devices and changes in hearing.
The Ling 6 sounds are: /m/, /oo/, /ah/, /ee/, /sh/, /s/

So which 4 sounds did Sean hear on Wednesday morning? /sh/, /s/, /oo/, /ee/!

Baby steps...

On a side note, this picture was taken by Sean's cousin, Addison! He is an amazingly talented young man.
