Aguirre, Julia, Karen Mayfield-Ingram and Danny Martin. The Impact of Identity in K-8 Mathematics: Rethinking Equity-Based Practices.

This book invites kindergarten to Grade 8 teachers to reflect on their own and their students’ multiple identities. Rich possibilities for learning result when teachers draw on these identities to offer high-quality, equity-based teaching to all students. Reflecting on identity and re-envisioning learning and teaching through this lens especially benefits students who have been marginalized by race, class, ethnicity or gender. The authors encourage teachers to reframe instruction by using five equity-based mathematics teaching practices:

• going deep with mathematics
• leveraging multiple mathematical competencies
• affirming mathematics learners’ identities
• challenging spaces of marginality
• drawing on multiple resources of knowledge
