Makaton
Makaton at Meadowbank School
We pride ourselves on our use of Makaton throughout the school, across all classrooms and in all situations. All staff have received Makaton training and we all support each other to practice and use the signs we have learnt regularly throughout the school day. We all like to learn new songs supported by Makaton with the help of “Singing Hands” on YouTube.
In the following video from CBeebies, parents of children who use Makaton explain how it has helped them communicate.
More information and free resources can be found on the Makaton Website.
