Maththatmatters 2: a teacher resource linking math and social justice

Stocker, David 1972- (Author).

Summary: "As social justice has entered the mainstream, the connection to mathematics has followed. People see it in their everyday lives, whether it's patterns pertaining to global warming, or the economics of the austerity movement; scratch the surface and you'll be speaking mathematics. In Math That Matters 2, educator and author David Stocker has produced another 50 lesson plans designed for students in grades 6-9 that link math with social justice." --
