This new resource from NCSC Partners at the University of North Carolina Charlotte provides an overview of the many resources available from NCSC to plan and provide standards-based instruction for students with significant cognitive disabilities. It covers lesson planning for both English language arts and mathematics that aligns to each student’s grade level, but the general procedures can be applied to other content areas as well. In addition, the general procedures presented here can be used regardless of the alternate assessment that the state uses for its students with significant cognitive disabilities.
