dc.description.abstractChildren with hearing impairment frequently experience speech-language deficits and exhibit lower academic achievement and poorer social-emotional development than their peers with normal hearing. It is the biggest task for the teachers in inclusive education to work for the development of language among CWHI. Language games are one among the alternatives which enables the students to remember things faster and better in an easy and relaxed atmosphere. Present study aimed to describe the benefits of language games to develop language among children with hearing impairment in relation to their age, gender and degree of hearing loss. Purposive sampling technique was used to do an experiment study of 20 primary school children aged 5 to 11 years studying at Coimbatore in Tamilnadu. A pretest and posttest tool was prepared to find the effectiveness of using language games and five language games were used to teach language for primary school children with hearing impairment The results show that mean scores of posttest is relatively higher when compared to that of the pretest of CWHI at primary level. Children of age level 9 to 11 years have scored higher than the age level of 5 to 8years. The achievement scores in pretest and posttest decreases with the increase in degree of hearing loss. There was not much difference between the achievement scores of boys and girls. Age and degree of hearing loss are found to be significant factors in the language development of primary school children with hearing impairment On the whole, it was found that the language games are effective technique in imparting language to children with hearing impairmenten_US
