All students want to talk about ideas that interest them, but often, multilingual learners are not offered high-challenge, high-support opportunities to connect everyday experiences to mathematical ideas. We describe a single class period that connects students' everyday opinions with two-way tables and notions of independence.

Teachers are increasingly adopting flipped instruction for individual lessons or even entire courses. Typically, flipped instruction involves a teacher assigning videos for homework and then using in-class time for students to solve problems--that is, the settings for content delivery and completing assignments have "flipped." In…

Sequences are an important topic--not only in mathematics but also in the mathematics curriculum. Exploring sequences related to medial triangles offers learners opportunities to solve problems involving sequences within geometric contexts. Sequences related to medial triangles are also a rich source of beautiful and interesting geometric patterns…

Mathematics instruction tend to center solely on mathematics or children's mathematical thinking and not also on connecting to their interests or their home and community knowledge and experiences. To be responsive to students, teachers must make an intentional effort to integrate a focus on mathematics, children's mathematical thinking, and…

The authors' experiences with Latinx families confirm research that shows parents are willing and have the desire to help their children with their mathematics schoolwork (Colegrove and Krause 2016). However, structural barriers make it challenging for Spanish-speaking parents to support their children's mathematics learning. For example,…
