A comprehensive financial literacy sequence for Special Education students focusing on real-world budgeting, income analysis, and banking skills for independent living.

This sequence uses a Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) approach to help 3rd-grade students in special education master multi-digit addition and subtraction. It moves from physical base-ten blocks to shorthand drawings and finally to the standard numeric algorithm, emphasizing the conceptual 'why' behind regrouping.

This advanced graduate sequence focuses on the design and implementation of the Concrete-Representational-Abstract (CRA) framework for learners with mathematics disabilities. Students will move from diagnostic error analysis to the creation of comprehensive, evidence-based intervention plans.

A sequence focused on teaching 5th-grade students with academic support needs how to apply spaced repetition and interleaving strategies to master complex procedural skills like multi-step math and grammar. Students learn to diagnose errors, manage practice intervals, and mix problem types to build long-term retention.

A 5-lesson sequence for 5th-grade students focused on decomposing complex academic tasks into manageable steps to support working memory and sustained attention. Students progress from non-academic sequencing to math word problems and independent project planning.

A game-based transition planning simulation where 9th-grade students manage a monthly budget, navigate adult responsibilities, and make decisions about housing, transportation, and daily living. This sequence integrates financial literacy with practical life skills tailored for students with disabilities.

A comprehensive sequence for 4th-grade students to master Text-to-Speech (TTS) assistive technology. Students learn to navigate complex text features, clean up cluttered webpages, tackle math word problems, conduct research, and take effective notes using auditory tools.

A comprehensive sequence for 11th-grade students to master the logistical and strategic elements of building a Special Education master schedule. Students progress from identifying fixed school-wide constraints to managing personnel and grouping students for maximum instructional impact.

A 10th-grade special education sequence focused on the strategic use of virtual manipulatives to bridge the gap between concrete modeling and abstract algebraic reasoning. Students progress from tool exploration to independent selection and justification.

A 5-lesson sequence for 11th-grade students transitioning from physical math manipulatives to virtual tools. The curriculum emphasizes digital literacy, strategic tool selection, and self-advocacy to prepare students for post-secondary academic environments.

This sequence uses base-ten blocks to help 6th-grade students with learning disabilities visualize decimal place value and operations. By redefining the 'flat' as one whole, students tactilely explore tenths and hundredths to build a concrete foundation for addition and subtraction.

This lesson empowers sophomores with cognitive impairments to confidently apply math skills to real-world menu scenarios. Students will learn to navigate a menu, identify prices, and calculate simple totals for lunch orders.

A 60-minute professional development session for teachers focusing on advanced executive function, emotional regulation, and scaffolding strategies to support students with ADHD. Educators will analyze case studies and develop personalized action plans.

An introductory 15-minute lesson for 6th-grade students exploring long division through the lens of accessibility and UEB Braille. Students learn the DMSB steps while understanding how math is represented tactually for blind learners.

A 30-minute foundational skills reinforcement lesson for 9th-graders focusing on order of operations and identifying main ideas. Students will engage in interactive review, guided reading, and independent practice to solidify core academic building blocks.

A 50-minute individualized Orton-Gillingham lesson for 4th-grade students with dyslexia, focusing on decoding multisyllabic words through syllable division rules for closed, open, and r-controlled syllables.

A 30-minute lesson for adult learners on mastering Unified English Braille (UEB) math symbols for basic operations and comparisons, focusing on correct spacing and symbol recognition.

This lesson helps students with intellectual disabilities (IQs 40-50) understand basic money concepts and budgeting using the 'dollar up' strategy. Students will learn to determine if they have enough money for a purchase and practice paying with the 'dollar up' method.

A 15-minute session for graduate students exploring the neurological underpinnings of autism and practical, brain-informed classroom strategies to support neurodiverse learners.

A 30-minute professional development session for school leaders focused on understanding 504 plans and implementing Tier 1 supports for students with ADHD and General Anxiety.

A 90-minute professional development session for Tier 1 teachers focused on transforming student mistakes into powerful learning opportunities using reflective tools and growth mindset strategies.

An individualized Tier 3 learning plan for 3rd-grade students, focusing on targeted skill mastery through an adventure-themed learning quest. This lesson provides a structured 30-minute session including a warm-up, mini-lesson, guided practice, and reflection.

A Tier 3 multiplication lesson designed for students with exceptionalities, focusing on concrete strategies like arrays, equal groups, and number lines to master facts up to 5x5.
