The adaptation examples show only a small portion of possi- bilities for students with disabilities to access math. Once estab- lished for your students, access becomes a natural part of the day, often across other subject areas.

options have opened doors and raised expectations. We now know what quality math instruction looks like and how to bring it to students. The results are astoundingly exciting and successful. At this moment, teachers are in the best position for providing quality math instruction for their students with disabilities than ever before. The tools are here. It’s time to move forward and grasp them.
