This article presents a checklist of 10 evidence-based practices for educators to apply in mathematics instruction for students with learning disabilities. The checklist is “actionable,” meaning the items on the checklist can be put into action immediately. It provides practical strategies teachers can adopt to fit their lessons regardless of their specific mathematical domain areas or student grade level. The focus of this article is translating research of evidence-based strategies into practice for mathematics instruction.

During the past 20 years, numerous studies examining the use of problem posing in mathematics instruction have documented positive outcomes in terms of students’ problem-solving skills, creativity, and attitudes and beliefs regarding the study of mathematics. However, despite these promising results, problem posing in mathematics instruction has rarely been studied in the population of students with learning disabilities (LDs). This study describes a problem-posing intervention that draws on existing Conceptual Model–based Problem-Solving program (COMPS, Xin) into the problem posing task. The COMPS-based problem posing intervention is designed to teach word problem posing skills to students with LDs under structured posing situations. The study used a multiple baseline across participants design and found the intervention was effective to improve students’ problem solving and posing skills. It provided implications for future research and teaching regarding the use of problem posing intervention in mathematics classroom for students with LDs.
