Systematic phonics intervention and its impact on the development of phonics skills and speech perception among children with hearing loss using spoken language

Literacy studies on children with hearing loss suggest possible benefits of systematic phonics instruction focusing on automatic recall of visual patterns and auditory-visual memory of sounds /letters. Few studies have looked at the impact of phonics in developing various speech-language skills...
