B22 - (F to Year 8) Weaving Numeracy through Aboriginal Storytelling. - Andrea O'Connor and Michael Chisholm
(F To Year 8)
Session Description
The ‘Weaving Numeracy through Aboriginal Storytelling’ workshop aims to support teachers to build confidence to meaningfully integrate the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander cross-curricular priority into mathematics. Andrea and Michael have worked collaboratively to explore the Dimensions of Multi-Cultural Education (Banks, 1995) and 8-Ways Pedagogy to develop a workshop which supports the idea of Equity Pedagogy and will provide ‘hands-on’ examples to take back to classrooms. In the workshop, Aboriginal pedagogical approaches to support mathematical learning will be modelled in a creative and delineated way through storytelling and linking language, culture and country. Teachers will be provided with resources they will be able to share with their school community and to support the indigenising of the maths curriculum.
