Windows into Practice: Teaching Mathematical Reasoning Across Language Contexts
At a time of curriculum reform across Ireland, primary teachers are looking for practical ways to move away from procedural routines and give children greater agency to think, talk, and reason mathematically.
As part of the MeasEolMata research project—and featured at the NCCA Primary Mathematics Shared Learning Day— a collaborative cross-border team of academic researchers and four teacher-researchers—working across three English-medium classrooms and one Irish-medium Gaelscoil—engaged in an iterative Lesson Study. Together, we explored how open-ended, qualitative tasks can reveal authentic mathematical reasoning across diverse primary settings.
