Multilingual Learners at the Forefront in California’s Math Framework | Session 5 of 6 

Session 5: The framework requires that materials forefront, value, and use the assets of students, including their home language, experiences, and beliefs, in the teaching of mathematics. How can these opportunities be built into HQIM? This session covers the following questions:
How can materials activate and build on students’ home and community math practices?
How can materials guide teachers to elicit and affirm students’ strengths and experiences and connect these to mathematics learning?
How can materials explicitly guide teachers to create opportunities for students to use home language & practices as resources for learning?
