CODA and KODA kids are very good at spelling because of their parents are deaf and they have to spell some words they don't know the signs or there are no signs for some of the words...
My friend, who is an interpter told me that KODA or CODA are better spellers.

Deb Ann,

I completely agree with you.
My sister and nephew excel at
receptive ASL and fingerspelling.
Their brain was so plastic when they were children that they become wired. Also, they do not suffer carpal tunnel whilst some non-CODA suffer carpal tunnel.
Some undertake a surgery.
