Students who are deaf/hard of hearing must rely on accommodations in order to have full access to spoken language and learning within the classroom. But many times students don't know what accommodati ... ons they need or how to request them. I created this deck of Boom Cards to help teach my deaf/hard of hearing students how to assert themselves and request their necessary accommodations. This deck features 28 cards total and are presented in a lesson format. There are 18 lesson cards and 10 self-checking checkpoint cards. Checkpoint cards are drag-and-drop and multiple-choice.This is a great deck to teach students what accommodations are, why they're important, and how to request accommodations (or how to remind a teacher who has forgotten to use them). This would be perfect as a guided lesson during one-on-one sessions with your students, or as an independent review. Please note: The first 2 interactive cards (cards 3 and 6) and are based on each student's unique circumstances; therefore there is no "right" answer. After selecting responses on these 2 cards, DO NOT hit submit or they will be marked as wrong. Simply select responses on these first 2 cards and click NEXT.
