noise when choosing the child?s seating placement. The school should adjust

their teaching strategies to accommodate their student?s needs. When teaching

in the classroom, the teacher needs to remember that a hearing aide do not

?correct? hearing in the same way that eyeglasses correct vision. When

speaking to the class, the teacher needs to be in a distance where the child

will be able to understand speech and speak at a normal tone. They need to

remember that the deaf or hard or hearing child may have fluctuating hearing

loss as a result of colds or ear infections changing what we can hear from day

to day. There are communication options that teachers can use in the classroom.

American Sign Language (ASL) is a manual language that is distinct from spoken

English. Extensively used within and among deaf community. English is, however,

taught as a second language. Closed Captioning is way of communication used on

the television set. Words appear on the bottom of the screen to communicate to a

deaf or hard of hearing student. Another form of communication is an

interpreter. Interpreters are used for deaf and hard of hearing students to

communicate in ASL what the teacher is discussing. Total Communication is the

philosophy of using every to communicate with deaf and hard of hearing students.

The child is exposed to a formal sign-language system, finger spelling, natural

gestures, speech reading, body language, oral speech, and use of amplification.

The idea is to communicate and teach vocabulary and language in any manner that

works in the classroom. V. Personal Reflections: When I wrote this paper, I have

never given my ?culture? background any thought. Deaf culture is part of my

life. I have basically been raised in more of a hearing culture setting then a

deaf culture setting. I went to school with my hearing peers but yet had many

deaf friends. I went through the nature, causality, assessment, and the

accommodation discussed in this paper. I have experienced this first hand and am

lucky to have this support. Deaf and hard of hearing has their advantages. We

have a right to sit up front at a concert or event. We can also shut people out

by just switching off our hearing aides. Being part of the Deaf community is a

great experience and I would not change that for the world.
