Teaching Black History through Math and Science : A Resource for Parents and Educators
Overview
At a time when almost a third of US States have restricted or limited the teaching of Black History and African American Studies, this book provides a crucial guide for parents and educators alike. A sustainable curiosity and enthusiasm for lifelong learning can be easily inspired through simple, practical exercises which connect math and science to real-world issues your children confront in their everyday lives. By integrating these lessons with interdisciplinary learning from fictional literature, non-fictional biographies, even movies and games, children are guided toward a deeper understanding of mathematic and scientific concepts - and develop a strong sense of fairness and justice, preparing them to question and challenge the world around them.
