Lesson 5 Accommodations: Hearing

Provide a sign language interpreter, real-time captioning, and/or an FM system.

Face students with hearing impairments so that they can see your lips. Speak clearly. Repeat questions or comments from others.

Allow flexible seating to provide a clear view of a sign language interpreter, lip reading, visual aids, and demonstrations.

Lesson 5 Accommodations: Learning Disabilities

A computer with voice output software is an appropriate accommodation for students with learning disabilities. Consult the video presentation and publication Working Together: Computers and People with Learning Disabilities and the AccessSTEM Knowledge Base.

Consider reformatting documents to minimize clutter and/or providing materials in large-print format. Ask the student if this would be helpful.
