Hello Everyone!
I greatly enjoyed attending the Teaching Math Through Social Justice
session at the recent OCTM conference. I wanted to share a resource
that I've been using for a few years now. You may already be aware of
it, but if not, be sure to check it out!

If you visit the website you'll be able to download, "A Guide for
Integrating Issues of Economic and Social Justice into Mathematics
Curriculum", by Jonathan Osler, founder of RadicalMath.org. The guide
has proven to be extremely beneficial for me and I would recommend it
to anyone! Check it out!!!!
I would also like to recommend visiting/joining the Generator School
Network. The National Youth Leadership Council created the network to
allow educators to collaborate and communicate about utilizing service-
learning in the classroom. I would highly suggest taking a moment or
two to check it out.

Please feel free to share any resources you may find helpful. I'm
always looking for new information and support!!!!
