"A very compelling set of fresh ideas are offered that prepare
educators to turn the corner on advocating for social justice in
the mathematics classroom. Each book is full of engaging
activities, frameworks and standards that centers instruction on
community, worldview, and the developmental needs of all students,
a must needed resource to reboot our commitment to the next
generation." Linda M. Fulmore TODOS: Mathematics For ALL Cave
Creek, AZ Empower students to be the change-join the teaching
mathematics for social justice movement! We live in an era in which
students of all ages have-through media and their lived
experiences- a more visceral experience of social injustices.
However, when people think of social justice, mathematics rarely
comes to mind. With a teacher-friendly design, this book brings
upper elementary mathematics content to life by connecting it to
student curiosity, empathy, and issues students see or experience.
Tested in Grades 3-5 classrooms, the model lessons in this book
walk teachers through the process of applying critical frameworks
to instruction, using standards-based mathematics to explore,
understand, and respond to social justice issues. Learn to plan
instruction that engages students in mathematics explorations
through age-appropriate, culturally relevant topics, such as
valuing differences, health and pay inequality, bullying, voting
rights, and environmental justice. Features include: Content
cross-referenced by mathematical concept and social issues
Connection to Learning for Justice's social justice standards
Downloadable instructional materials and lesson resources Guidance
for lessons driven by students' unique passions and challenges
Connections between research and practice Written for teachers
committed to developing equitable and just practices through the
lens of mathematics content and practice standards as well as
social justice standards, this book will help connect content to
students' daily lives, fortify their mathematical understanding,
and expose them to issues that will support them in becoming active
citizens and leaders.
