I do  teach kids with cognitive impairments (mental retardation), 
emotional  disturbance, speech language impairment, etc. 


Just checking... how able are your kids to work with math  manipulatives?  
(I'm thinking specifically of the pyramids here...)   Would your kids be in any 
danger from the small 'mids?  If not, I bet you  can adapt some of those games 
(I'm thinking of Volcano, Treehouse, etc) to your  class... and there can be 
ways to bring math into it (how may points - pip count  - are in this row 
after a move, etc).
 
Just my tuppence for today...
