This course focuses on teaching mathematics to diverse students, including, but not limited to, those with special needs. Participants will study number sense and operations topics and will be expected to reach a minimum competency in these areas as measured by several exams throughout the course.

Participants will analyze how to teach the skills, concepts, and applications in these areas. In addition, participants will study the variety of reasons students may need something different than their peers and how to address those needs.

Participants will use a modified backwards design method to plan a unit that would work for the range of learners. This course embeds the Common Core State Standards throughout and will prepare participants to teach to it.

This course includes a pre-practicum field-based experience.
