'Teaching Toward Social Justice': California's New Math Framework Aims to Create 'Equitable Outcomes' Between Students

Glad to see this. All of the accelerated math options are really just modes of ensuring children of color fall behind educationally. It's also well-known we can't expect children of color to do as well on written tests because of cultural bias, stereotype threat, and historical white-norming of the subject. Glad they are moving to an equity-focused curriculum. Let the right wingers and fauxgressives complain about this one, California once again will be leaders in DEI.

In addition, Darling (2019) provides a framework that is important for supporting linguistically and culturally diverse English learners as well as other students:

1. Take an asset approach and recognize multilingualism as a power
2. Include group work (strategically grouping for language development)
3. Make work visual (include graphic organizers and visual examples and encourage visual communication)
4. Build on students' lived experiences and cultures (allow native language use)
5. Scaffold learning and language development (including sentence frames and sentence starters)
6. Give opportunities for pre-learning (giving students opportunities to learn some prerequisite

Likely not, but did you?

#4 (allow native language use) and #5/#6 (assume absence of pre-requisite English language skills?) are typical DEI nonsense.

Likely not, but did you?

All of it?

No.

But enough of the CA changes to recognize the utter bullshit contained in the Free Beacon article and OP? Yes.

Hmm… enough to allegedly support your confirmation bias.

BTW, the OP supported the idea.

I have zero dog in the CA public education fight. So no, I felt zero need to read every last word of CA new educational standards.

Of course you are excellently versed in it, I’m sure.

Your post #2 seemed to consider that important, yet (somehow) you seemed able to determine that the OP linked article was “utter bullshit” without doing so.

What is a child of color?

My friend identifies as black and he is. I am considered white yet there isn't a white spot on my body ...everything is various shades of brown, tan, cream, some black and some little ed dots.

In art that would be "colored".

Further, I have a feeling that your views from a 99.9% white man about how 'children of color' learn is not appreciated
