Makaton Videos

Makaton is a language programme which utilises signs and symbols to help people to access communication more effectively. It is designed to support spoken and receptive language and the signs and symbols are used with speech, in spoken word order. Makaton's signs are highly visual, concrete and very iconic (at the early stages). This makes them more motivating for pupils to look at and sometimes easier to understand than spoken words alone. Makaton signing can help to develop attention and listening skills, as well as encourage engagement at all levels and social interaction too.
