As the degree of hearing loss increases, children’s speech production and vocabulary decrease, and their reading and writing skills decline. The children with congenital severe to profound hearing loss experience problems in different components of language when compared to normal hearing peers. It is necessary that language skills of these children be studied in detail for their language skills to be determined and for intervention programs aiming at these fields to be created. In this study, it is aimed to examine language skills which are prerequisition for academic achievement of these children in their school life. Early period language development enables to determine cognitive process skills and academic difficulties of the children with congenital severe to profound hearing loss. The practice of intervention program arranged in accordance with the analysis and results of analysis of different language fields will increase the effectiveness of intervention and enable their future academic achievement. In addition, the objectives should be carefully selected in the dimension of understanding and expressing the language for its different components, and in early period syntax, semantic, vocabulary and pragmatic skills should be more intensely promoted.
