Mathematics

Mathematics explores the relationship between curiosity and logic and how it's used to find solutions to our problems. Plurilingual strategies help to strengthen this link by showing the logical connection between language and formulas, while also exercising students' critical thinking and developing their interdisciplinary knowledge and skills. 

On this page, you will find a teacher's perspective on plurilingual pedagogy in the Mathematics classroom and a lesson plan merging the pedagogy with the discipline.
