There is dire need to prepare mathematics teachers who understand the importance of aligning classroom experiences with students’ home cultures to enhance their academic, social, and cultural wellbeing. This study, therefore, was designed to examine how one preservice teacher understood the concept of culturally responsive teaching, and how she later implemented culturally responsive practices in a third-grade mathematics classroom during her student teaching assignment.</p> ER -
