Culturally Relevant Pedagogy: Teaching Toward Student Interest in an Algebra Classroom

Teachers utilize countless strategies in hopes of their learners becoming connected with the material. Unfortunately, said strategies may or may not be effective, depending on how they are approached and how the students react. Culturally Relevant Pedagogy is a strategy that is becoming more popular by educators. This curriculum project presents three examples that align with Cultural Relevant Pedagogy based upon students’ interests, hobbies and cultural upbringings. The curriculum provided explores opportunities to successfully practice Culturally Relevant Pedagogy through color-conscious disposition, informed variation and holding students to high expectations regardless of diversities.
