Autor w swoim opracowaniu poddał analizie wszystkie teksty euchologijne liturgicznego wspomnienia św. Jana Bosko znajdujące się zarówno w Mszale Rzymskim dla diecezji polskich, jak i w Messale Proprio della Famiglia Salesiana. Okazała się ona cennym zabiegiem, który miał na celu ukazanie zasadniczych elementów duchowości św. Jana Bosko, założyciela Towarzystwa św. Franciszka Salezego. Ponadto artykuł prezentuje bogactwo tekstów mszalnych, które spełniają wiele funkcji przede wszystkim formacyjnych i dydaktycznych, które przy dobrym wykorzystaniu mogą powiększyć plejadę osób wyniesionych w Kościele katolickim do grona błogosławionych i kanonizowanych.

Children, from birth, acquire literacy within various contexts, including in early childhood educational settings. In the United States, there has been renewed attention from the public, the government and educators to increase the quality of early childhood education. Particular focus has been on settings serving children who are at risk for of later literacy failure. This can include deaf children who typically fall well behind their hearing peers in literacy during the school years and beyond. However, little is known about the frequency and types of literacy experiences offered to deaf children as compared to those offered to hearing children. The current investigation aimed to account for the literacy activities and materials provided to hearing and deaf children through a survey of early childhood educators ( N = 155) who work primarily with one of these populations. Descriptive statistics and Chi-Square Tests of Independence comparisons indicated that, although there is room for improvement in both populations, deaf children in particular may not be receiving access to high quality literacy activities in EC settings. Based on the study’s findings, directions for future research and also the preparation and continued development of all early childhood educators are identified.

Six case studies of young deaf children from deaf and hearing families are presented. A model home literacy program at the Indiana School for the Deaf is described. Case studies and the home literacy program describe activities which link sign language and finger spelling to early reading and writing at home. Activities include the daily reading of whole storybooks, explaining environmental print, labeling drawings with letters and words, writing lists and notes to family members and playing and experimenting with writing.

In recent years, there has been increasing concern about the identification of, and provision of appropriate services to, children with hearing impairment and learning disabilities (HILD). Although at present it is unclear just what percentage of children with HI also might have educationally significant learning problems, results from limited survey research within the sparse literature on students with multiple disabilities and HI (MDHI) provide evidence that such a group exists and that a significant portion of the school-age population with HI falls within the HILD subgroup. For children with hearing loss, the preschool period offers a prime opportunity for educationally significant problems in addition to impaired hearing, such as learning disabilities, to be identified and for an educational plan to be implemented. This article presents information on the characteristic etiologies, estimated prevalence, aspects of identification and educational programming, and an agenda for practice and research with this population.
