Abstract

Community and school Education, Elementary Home and school Methods Study and teaching Education Mathematics Parent Participation
Some suggested activities to help teachers build connections between children's mathematical thinking and family and community knowledge during their mathematics instruction are provided. The activities are expected to support the reorienting of teachers' thinking toward students and their communities as resources, instead of barriers, for mathematics instruction.
