    Mean to be
    Deaf?
    What Classifies as Hearing Loss
    Db: The volume or loudness of a sound is determined by the sound pressure level. The higher this is, the louder the sound is.
    Sound pressure level is measured in decibels (dB). The word “decibel” comes from “deci” (meaning “one tenth”) and the name
    of the man who invented the decibel unit, Alexander Graham Bell.

    Mild Hearing Loss Hearing loss of 20 to 40 decibels.

    Moderate Hearing Loss Hearing loss of 41 to 60 decibels.

    Severe Hearing Loss Hearing loss of 61 to 80 decibels.

    Profound Hearing Loss Hearing loss of more than 81 decibels.

    Case Study
    Danny, who is a 15 year-old boy who went deaf at a very
    young age due to multiple ear infections. Danny does have
    hearing aids but sometimes he prefers to take them off because
    the sounds hurt his head or he feels he cannot hear what is
    being said anyways. Danny has received early intervention and
    has taken a speech class throughout his time in school. Despite
    these early interventions, Danny is still behind in his speech
    and language skills are delayed. Danny is being supported by
    audiologist who ensures that Danny’s hearing aids work and
    he can remain in a general education classroom.

    What are some accommodations that can be implemented for


    Danny?
