Using the What-How-Who Structure to Plan an Equitable Mathematics Lesson
Abstract
This article describes how a first-grade teacher used the What-How-Who structure to plan a series of mathematical tasks focused on fairness and equity in a real-world situation. The teacher used Shel Silverstein’s “Band-Aids” poem as a catalyst to plan mathematical activities that would prompt students’ analysis of skin-toned bandages as they organize, represent, and interpret data.
