Hi guys,
I want to learn makaton to help me communicate better with the children at volunteering. Does anyone know a good place to start? I know a few bits and pieces, but am really looking for a book or free online course to enable me to understand the children as best as possible
Thanks!

I don't have any tips for learning it though sorry I think it's very hard to learn from a book and you just have to pick it up as you go along, that's what I do. it's hard to remember when you aren't using it all the time I think.
No it's makaton Justin comes to do makaton sessions with the kids sometimes, and on the cbeebies website it says it's makaton.
I do think that the best way would be to just go in and learn as you do. Good luck
