- The Learning Gaps Myth: We can't address grade-level content until students are caught up with their peers.
- The Answer Getting Myth: Math is all about getting the right answer.
- The Rigor Myth: Rigorous math instruction is only for advanced studentsit's wasted on those at lower levels.
- The Single Score Myth: Paper-and-pencil tests are the only practical way to assess students' math knowledge.
- The All Children, but . . . Myth: Sure, we believe that all children can learn mathexcept . . .

In Conquering Math Myths with Universal Design, Jenna Mancini Rufo and Ron Martiello set out to dispel each of these myths, illuminating the path toward more inclusive and accessible math instruction that empowers students to learn, understand, and appreciate the value of mathematics in everyday life.
