| Synopsis
|
The Math First Peoples Resource Guide is designed to help
teachers of Mathematics 8 and 9 in British Columbia (BC) extend their
existing practice to incorporate new approaches that make the BC
school system more reflective of the realities of First Peoples. It
is based on the belief that by bringing content, perspectives, and
teaching approaches associated with First Peoples into the math
classroom, teachers will: help all students better appreciate the
presence and importance of mathematics and mathematical thinking
within all human cultures and activities; give all students a better
sense of the significant place of First Peoples within the historical
and contemporary fabric of this province; and help their Aboriginal
students to feel more comfortable in mathematics learning situations
and more motivated to participate and focus thus becoming able to
learn more effectively, experience increased academic success, and
develop numeracy concepts and skills for lifelong use.
