Guiding Principles
equitable teaching practices
We reflect on math identities of all math learners, including teachers and students.
affect
We create learning environments where teachers experience the connection between Social Emotional Learning, affect, and mathematics practices.
teaching math to respond to social injustices
We build communities of learners where teachers and students unite through discourse about relevant mathematics and real-world topics in order to promote racial and cultural equity in mathematics classrooms.
teacher co-creation of instructional resources
We ignite teacher agency through their co-creation of engaging learning experiences.
teacher mentoring during the planning and implementation of instruction
We provide mentorship for teachers as they maximize their potential through innovative mentoring cycles and “in-the-moment” coaching.
4DMA is for teachers, like you, supporting what you need to reset and revive your practice with a community of like-minded professionals.
