District Curriculum & Planning Tools for Special Education Programs

Practical adapted curriculum and instructional planning tools to support access, engagement, and more consistent instruction across your program.

The Curriculum Isn’t Always the Problem

Most districts already have curriculum, programs, and materials in place, yet instruction can still look very different from classroom to classroom.
The challenge is helping teachers use those materials consistently and purposefully across planning, differentiation, engagement, and access.
Teachers need more than activities. They need tools that help them plan, adapt, and make instructional decisions with greater clarity.
What often gets left out:

Creatively Adapted resources are designed to support both daily classroom use and the planning behind it.

Adapted Curriculum and Planning Tools for Your Teachers

Choose resources that best meet your team’s needs—from classroom-ready curriculum to instructional planning tools and implementation support.

Adapted Book Companions

Best-selling book companions to help students engage with favorite classroom stories through adapted books, vocabulary, comprehension activities, and hands-on learning.

Designed to support engagement, comprehension, and differentiated access to literacy.

Classroom Organization & Instructional Planning​

Resources that support classroom organization and instructional planning, from visual supports and clear routines to ELA and math guides and assessment tools.

Designed to help teachers identify student strengths and needs, choose meaningful access points, plan differentiated instruction, and guide next steps.

Play-Based Thematic Units · Preschool–Kindergarten​

Play-based units that embed meaningful learning through daily routines, learning centers, hands-on exploration, and student-led play.

Designed to build communication, participation, early academic skills, and engagement through meaningful play.

Adapted Thematic Units · K–2​

Comprehensive thematic units that bring planning, differentiation, engagement, and access to grade-level content together in one place.

Designed for special educators, general education teachers, and teams supporting diverse learners across settings.

Optional Implementation Support​

Available with select district packages to help district leads and teacher-leader teams plan implementation, build internal capacity, and support consistent use across classrooms.

Resources are designed for teams to use without ongoing consultation. Rollout support provides additional help reviewing materials, answering implementation questions, and starting with a clear, shared plan.

Districts found these resources before I ever marketed to them

Creatively Adapted began as a way to support teachers. Over time, teachers, administrators, and district leaders began noticing the materials being used in intern classrooms, school sites, district consultation, and professional learning settings.

That continues to shape the work today. Creatively Adapted is grounded in:

  • 30+ years across special education teaching, coaching, and administration
  • University instruction and supervision supporting beginning special educators
  • Professional development delivered nationally and internationally
  • Planning and assessment tools refined through work with interns, teachers, and district teams
  • Ongoing district consultation supporting program consistency and teacher capacity

I’ve worked across the classroom, coaching, administrative, university, and district sides of special education. That experience helps me create tools teachers can actually use to strengthen their practice.
