        Other Accommodations
        
        Allow your deaf student to sit in the front of the class with their interpreter between them and the board so that it will be easier to follow along with both
        
        face the student when speaking so that lip reading is more possible
        
        Get to know the student so that you can better relate your lessons to their own experiences
        
        Provide your student with a note taker who can produce notes that are understandable to the student
        
        Assistive technologies

        Other Accommodations
        
        Early intervention is necessary as soon as the child begins school
        
        Involvement of the appropriate professionals i.e occupational therapist, speech/language therapists, physiotherapists
        
        The physical arrangement of the classroom will need to best accommodate this child. Consideration of special equipment and assistive technology is essential.
        
        Integration among their peers is important to assist these students with social development. It's important to integrate multiple disabled children as much as it possible.
        
        Ensuring that al students demonstrate respect for the multiple disabled students becomes a teacher's responsibility and needs to be taken seriously with ongoing activities develop respect from the other students in the class.
