Why Language Matters in Math

Math isn’t just numbers; it’s a language of its own. For many students, especially multilingual learners, the greatest barrier to mastering math isn’t computation – it’s comprehension. Words like "sum," "difference," and "product" carry specific meanings in math that may differ from their everyday use. Without clear instruction, students can quickly feel overwhelmed and disengaged.

When teachers approach math with a language lens, they empower all students to:

• Decode complex word problems with confidence.
• Understand key math vocabulary and its context.
• Engage in math discourse and explain their thinking effectively.

This course equips educators with practical strategies to:

• Simplify math language without diluting the rigor.
• Analyze math content for language demand.
• Design lessons that integrate language and math skills, helping students build confidence and competence.
