Description

This Super Simple Algebra 1 Curriculum for Special Education Math covers 12 essential Algebra 1 topics using pictures, simple math, and many hands-on math activities.

  6. Function Tables
  7. Slope
  8. Algebra
  9. Inequalities

  12. Pythagorean Theorem


What is Super Simple?

  • Super simple indicates that it is intended for students working at a K-1 level and need maximum support.
  • Problems are simplified.
  • Pictures are used throughout.
  • Intended for students in self-contained settings.
  • Printable and digital activities for more practice.


Each unit includes:

  • Detailed lesson plans (1-2 weeks per unit)
  • Engaging PowerPoints to teach concepts
  • Hands-on, group activities
  • Practice worksheets
  • Assessments
  • Printable and digital formats

I know you are being asked to teach more rigorous standards, which can be challenging, especially in the upper grades. This material is meant to prepare students for testing and be successful with regular curriculum content in a way that is age-appropriate yet still accessible.

Much of what I have learned about curriculum development is incorporated in these units. For example, do not be afraid of repetition. It is critical that students with significant disabilities get to experience material over several days to be able to fully assimilate what is being taught. Also, adding visual supports to your printables and class activities helps students be able to pay more attention to the content you are presenting rather than the mechanics of what is expected. Finally, ask questions. Good questions!! Regardless of the material, if we can ask students good questions it will push them to think more deeply than before.

A True Life-Saver for Modified Algebra Curriculum
Rated 5 out of 5
September 10, 2025
Met expectations
Great value
Extremely useful. I was daunted with the task of coming up with work for a modified High School Algebra curriculum for students with moderate-severe needs. This resource was a life-saver. A great way to introduce Algebra concepts, without being overwhelming and confusing. It really breaks it down the fundamentals. It was a real life-saver and has saved me a ton of work.

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
Explain how the definition of the meaning of rational exponents follows from extending the properties of integer exponents to those values, allowing for a notation for radicals in terms of rational exponents. For example, we define 5 to the 1/3 power to be the cube root of 5 because we want (5 to the 1/3 power)³ = 5 to the (1/3)(3) power to hold, so (5 to the 1/3 power)³ must equal 5.
Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context.
Create equations and inequalities in one variable and use them to solve problems.
