Inhaltsangabe

Mathematics is an international language and field of study that knows no barriers between race, culture or creed. This universality inspired the foundation in 1987 of Elementary Mathematics from a Multicultural Standpoint (EMMS), a partnership that aims to increase students' enjoyment of mathematics and promote its suitability for preparing children for life in a multicultural society. Written for parents, teachers and administrators, this book discusses the theories behind multicultural mathematics, shows how it can be applied within the core of any elementary curriculum, and explores the educational and social benefits of this new approach to teaching maths.
