Mathematics Education and Life at Times of Crisis Vol. 2 (2017), pp. 728-737Abstract: This paper describes the Math for Young Children project (M4YC), a professional development research project that works with teams of educators in an adapted lesson study approach to promote, design and assess visual, spatial approaches to mathematics learning in early years classrooms. Since 2011, our work has focussed on supporting communities historically underserved by the educational system. We present methods and results of our ongoing work in First Nations communities in the Treaty 3 territory of Northwestern Ontario.
