Title: Teaching Mathematics for Social Justice

Presenters: Robert Q. Berry III, Basil M. Conway IV, Brian R. Lawler, John W. Staley

Teaching Math for Social Justice (TMSJ) is much more than the lessons teachers might implement in their classrooms. It is about the relationships they build with and among students; the teaching practices that help them do that; and the goals to develop positive social, cultural, and mathematics identities—as authors, actors, and doers. Join the authors, Robert Q. Berry III, Basil M. Conway IV, Brian R. Lawler, and John Staley, of "High School Lessons to Explore, Understand, and Respond to Social Injustice" as they unpack ideas from the book to promote thought and action toward TMSJ in the high school classroom.

Title: Toxic Trauma, Stress and the Brain

We now know that a child’s brain is most flexible during the first few years of life.  These early years are a critical period for learning, growth, and development.  Brains grow through touch, talk, sight, and sound.  What happens when children don’t get this? What happens in early childhood can matter for a lifetime.  We must recognize and address problems before they get worse.  Research shows that toxic stress and adversity, such as poverty, abuse, or neglect can weaken the developing brain architecture and permanently set the body’s stress response system on high alert.  The good news is that science shows that providing stable, responsive, nurturing relationships with children and adolescents can prevent and even reverse the damaging effects of early life stress.  The number of caring adults in a child’s life is directly related to their success."

Title: 6.8 Using Discourse to Access Language and Mathematics for English Learners

Extensive use of discourse in the classroom is a key practice to support the learning of English while learning mathematics. English learners are in varying stages of English language development, and discourse will increase their productive (oral and written) and receptive (listening and reading) language functions in addition to their comprehension of mathematics concepts. The Standards for Mathematical Practice expect students to reason, construct viable arguments, and critique the reasoning of others, among other practices. Thus, classroom teachers need to provide support for students’ English language development to engage in these practices.

In this webinar, Dr. Susie W. Håkansson shares the rationale for using discourse in the classroom, the role of productive and receptive language functions in the learning of mathematics, as well as examples of how to increase discourse in the classroom. The presentation covers: Challenges in learning English Using discourse (including the role of productive and receptive language functions), Language in the mathematics classroom, Cognitively-demanding mathematics tasks, Examples of discourse in the classroom, Equity, and excellence Learn how to support your English learners while they are learning mathematics.
