All students deserve access to a rich and meaningful math curriculum. This book guides middle and high school teachers toward providing all learners – including neurodiverse students – with the support necessary to engage in rewarding math content. Students who receive special education services often experience a limited curriculum through practices that create long-term disadvantages and increase gaps in learning. The tools and strategies in this book help teachers better understand their students to move them closer to their potential. Chapters include differentiation, assessment, classroom structure, and learning targets. Both general education math teachers who have not been trained in special education support and special education teachers with a limited background in standards-based math pedagogy will learn new skills to improve their teaching from this practical resource.
David Johnston taught middle school for 17 years and is certified in both math and special education. He has also worked as an instructional coach supporting and training math and special education teachers across several campuses. This book developed out of his work as a teacher, coach, and professional development leader. He is currently pursuing a PhD in Curriculum & Instruction from Texas Tech University.
