Maththatmatters : a teacher resource linking math and social justice / by David Stocker ; illustrated by Zenith Chance.
In Maththatmatters, David Stocker has crafted 50 thoughtful and accessible lesson plans that explore the links between mathematics and social justice. This is an innovative and indispensable tool for those passionate about education, mathematics, social justice, civic engagement, and interactive and involved classrooms. This book was designed for grades 6-9. The lessons were piloted in a class of 13 and 14 year olds. The two objectives are: 1) To offer math activities that can be used to teach and reinforce the math skills that teachers are required to have their students learn. 2) To provide content that captures and increases student interest in justice, fairness and kindness, replacing purposeless content that furthers no student's ability to engage with their social reality.
