Recent Activities —

The vocabulary of the HI students is limited . They need simplified text books .

These books are not available in the market , so Suhrud has taken up the work of
simplifying the text books with the help of eminent educators and experts in this field
.

These books will be very useful to all Hearing Impaired students and slow learners in
Maharashtra state.

Development of parallel Text Books :

Specials schools have been using regular textbooks developed by Balbharati in Maharashtra
state.

BalBharati publishes text books for all regular school children in Maharashtra state.
Content experts and renowned educationists carefully select material of these books .
Naturally there have been challenges, and hurdles to adopt and to implement the academic
program for these children in special schools.

The expert committee was formed to undertake the task of adaptation of the text books for
std I,II,III,IV published by Balbharati. This adaptation exercise was done adhering the
guidelines set by Rehabilitation Council of India (RCI) , and Ali Yaver Jung National
Institute of Hearing Handicapped ( AYJNIHH)

This endeavor of SuhrudMandal will provide uniform teaching material to educators serving
the children with special needs, saving their time and effort. In the adapted version of
text books, the content matter is re-written in simpler words, giving meanings of new
words also in simpler words. Additional pictures and visual inputs are provided to make
comprehension easier.

These books are immensely useful for children with limited language. And as such these
will also be useful to children with learning disabilities. SuhrudMandal is confident
that all the special schools in Maharashtra state will benefit from these newly
developed parallel Text books.
