Abstract: The article focuses on the integration of culturally responsive pedagogical approaches, specifically equity pedagogy, within inclusive classrooms serving culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) youth with disabilities. It highlights a critical reflexivity model that guides teachers through a three-step process—identifying equity-focused learning goals, implementing culturally relevant instructional strategies, and reflecting on teaching practices and student engagement—to transform standardized curricula into more relevant and empowering learning experiences. The case of Ms. Edwards, an eighth-grade inclusion teacher, exemplifies how this model can be applied using content integration, knowledge construction, and prejudice reduction to support CLD students with individualized education programs (IEPs). The article underscores the persistent disparities in educational outcomes for CLD students with disabilities and advocates for reflexive, equity-centered teaching practices as essential for fostering more equitable academic and social-emotional outcomes.
