:: Scholastic Media Introduces a Deaf Character on the Animated Series on PBS KIDS GO! ::

Date: August 30th 2006

Scholastic Media Introduces a Deaf Character on the Animated Series Maya and Miguel Airing on PBS KIDS GO!

The Captioned Media Program (CMP) has formed a partnership with Scholastic Media to help raise deaf awareness through a groundbreaking episode of Maya and Miguel that features a deaf character who uses ASL to communicate. The episode, “Give Me a Little Sign,” will premiere on September 25 and will continue to broadcast daily until Friday, September 29, in celebration of Deaf Awareness Week (September 24–30, 2006). This episode will also be broadcast with open captions (this is a first for PBS KIDS GO!sm programming).

The CMP is also hosting screenings of “Give Me a Little Sign” at several of our library sites where students, teachers, and families of students will attend.

You can view flyers from the CMP about this partnership and the episode at the following URLs:

We are excited about this opportunity to raise deaf awareness to such a large audience. We believe the episode is well done and will be enjoyed by those who watch it. Please feel free to share any of these items with others.

If you have any questions about the above, or if you would like more information, please contact the CMP. Thank you for your support!
