Preschool and Kindergarten Five mornings a week, teachers help hearing-impaired children, ages three to six, learn to listen and talk. While using their residual hearing with cochlear implants or hearing aids, children are encouraged to talk and are introduced to written language. They also receive daily individual and classroom listening, speech and language sessions. Teachers stimulate children to be inquisitive and self-confident.
