Abstract
The strategic incremental rehearsal intervention is a modified form of incremental rehearsal, known for its effectiveness as a flashcard technique in improving sight word acquisition among children with reading difficulties. Despite its efficacy, evaluations of this procedure with children who are deaf or hard of hearing and who have received special education services remain sparse. This study aimed to assess the impact of incremental rehearsal intervention on the acquisition of nine sight words among second-grade students who are hard of hearing. A single-case experimental design with a multiple probe across participants was used. Three hard of hearing students participated in the study. The data indicated a significant improvement in sight word recognition among the students following the intervention.

The American Annals of the Deaf is a professional journal dedicated to quality in education and related services for deaf or hard of hearing children and adults. First published in 1847, the Annals is the oldest and most widely read English-language journal dealing with deafness and the education of deaf persons. The Annals is the official organ of the Council of American Instructors of the Deaf (CAID) and of the Conference of Educational Administrators of Schools and Programs for the Deaf (CEASD) and is directed and administered by a Joint Annals Administrative Committee made up of members of the executive committees of both of these organizations.
