Cultivating Mathematical Hearts

Culturally Responsive Mathematics Teaching in Elementary Classrooms

By: Maria del Rosario Zavala,Julia Maria Aguirre

This book is for everyone who believes there must be a better, stronger way to teach mathematics that fosters student joy and curiosity, rather than fear and disconnection; a way that demonstrates to children that mathematics is both a mirror and a lens-it reflects who you are and who you are becoming, and it helps you analyze the world around you. A way to see mathematics as a tool to make positive change in our communities and build foundational knowledge and skills to solve novel and complex problems in our world and its future. This book is organized into two main parts. Part 1 describes the fundamental principles, ideas, and vision (i.e. foundations) of culturally responsive mathematics teaching. It also introduces a multidimensional framework for culturally responsive mathematics teaching. Part 2 features a set of chapters that illustrate culturally responsive mathematics teaching in action"--

Early Elementary Mathematics Lessons to Explore, Understand, and Respond to Social Injustice

By: Courtney Koestler,Jennifer Ward,Maria del Rosario Zavala,Tonya Gau Bartell

This book is a must-read for all elementary educators. A call to action, the guide for teachers offers incredible resources, including powerful lesson plans, to engage readers in the practice of teaching mathematics for social justice in early childhood settings. An immense contribution to the conversation around social justice and mathematics in elementary education." Ruchi Agarwal-Rangnath Assistant Professor, University of San Francisco San Francisco, CA Empower children 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 early elementary mathematics content to life by connecting it to the natural curiosity and empathy young children bring with them and the issues they experience. Tested in PK-2 classrooms, the model lessons contributed 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 children in mathematics explorations through age-appropriate, culturally relevant topics such as fairness, valuing diversity and difference, representation and inequality, 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 children’s 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 children’s daily lives, fortify their mathematical understanding, and expose them to issues that will support them in becoming active citizens and leaders.
