    Paul Revere Captioned Media was perfect for our upper elementary deaf and hard of hearing team ten social studies unit! I love that the librarian is having students read from various library books to gather information about Paul Revere's life! It was like we were all there for a library session as we learned together about one of our nation's founding fathers! EXCELLENT!
