Equity Moves to Support Multilingual Learners in Mathematics and Science, Grades K-8
A strengths and assets-based approach to multilingual learner success As the number of multilingual learners (MLLs) in US schools continues to grow, educators need to learn the moves necessary to support the success of these students in mathematics and science. Equity Moves to Support Multilingual Learners in Mathematics and Science, Grades K-8 focuses on the literacy opportunities that MLLs can achieve when language scaffolds are taught alongside rigorous math and science content. It provides a framework teachers can use to develop equity-centered, scaffolded math, science, or STEAM lessons. Readers will find Anchor phenomena that demonstrate issues with lesson design and delivery and highlight areas to include language and content scaffolds Examples for honoring the languages of students, families, and communities Culturally responsive techniques and easy-to-use tables featuring the equity moves Vignettes showcasing the equity move in the classroom setting A focus on four language demands: vocabulary, discourse, multiple modes of representation, and text features With an assets-based approach to what MLLs can do, this book helps teachers unpack the language demands of mathematics and science and encourages reflection of their own practices in scaffolding for language and culture.
The Well-Rounded Math Student
Integrate a holistic approach to mathematics success with essential personal and social skills Teaching math is more than just numbers. It’s about shaping future-ready students who are not only academically strong but thrive socially and emotionally. Research shows that learning both intrapersonal and interpersonal skills helps students academically, and teachers play a crucial role in providing social-emotional support. The Well-Rounded Math Student helps mathematics teachers in Grades K-12 foster both their students′ academic prowess and their social and emotional development. Through the lens of the Standards for Mathematical Practice, the book emphasizes the importance of intentionally teaching and promoting intrapersonal and interpersonal skills, or "Next Generation" skills, alongside mathematical concepts. The authors provide step-by-step guidance on how small adjustments in lesson planning can have a profound impact on students′ growth. Providing teachers with a new lens to leverage in their planning as well as concrete ways to use their mathematics lessons to explicitly teach and reinforce social and emotional competencies, this book: Holds a strengths-based mindset and approach—for both teachers and students Highlights the importance of the science and the art of teaching to enhance social development, human connection, classroom management, and community within classrooms Stresses that the overarching goal of education is to help students become responsible adults who are ready for their future Includes a lesson planning guide, competency builder activities, vignettes of enhanced lessons across grade bands, reflection questions, and suggestions for taking action The Well-Rounded Math Student bridges critical intrapersonal and interpersonal elements to help educators create an environment where students excel in math and develop the life skills they’ll carry forever.
