And what was the verdict? Here's the report.

“I have played with coloured syntax in different forms over many years, and it was great to see a refresher. It would be good to give it a go with one complex student I have in mind.”

“I will be setting up colour semantics within my class as it not only will support my hard of hearing students but all of my students. I have also started sounding out words using fingerspelling and have already seen changes in the way my student views letters/sounds.”

​“Meg is a great, well-organised speaker and very engaging and knowledgeable. The CDEs are really well served with her speech pathology skills!”
