Some of our findings reveal that parents react to their children’s mathematics education looking back to their own experiences as students. Thus, in some cases, they are faced with pedagogical strategies unfamiliar to them. This may lead to conflict but also to possibilities for exchange of strategies and learning for both parties, children and parents. Our study shows the resourcefulness among parents who not only had different learning experiences but also may encounter a language barrier. Parents turn to the community for help, such as taking their children to the community centre, or asking other family members or neighbors for help with homework. There are also parents who express some concern about the level of the mathematics that their children are studying. Some parents deliberately engage with their children in activities that promote and require explicit display of mathematical reasoning and knowledge. Our findings point to the different ways in which community, family and school are connected.  \nKey words: parents’perceptions, Latino families, interactions, community.  \nIntroduction  \nThis paper contributes to the research on parents’ engagement in mathematics teaching and learning (Civil & Andrade, 2002; Civil & Bernier, 2006; Epstein & Sheldon, 2005; Lehrer & Shumow, 1997; Remillard & Jackson, 2006) . Research with low-income, minoritized and immigrant families reveals that there is often a cultural and social gap between their expectations for their children’s education and their experiences with the actual schooling their children are receiving (Abreu, Cline, & Shamsi, 2002; Calabrese Barton, Drake, Perez, St. Louis, & George, 2004; Civil & Bernier, 2006; Civil, Bernier, & Quintos, 2003; Horvat,  \nVolume 3(2a)–November 2008 41  \nWeininger, & Lareau, 2003) . Research also points to the difficulties that parents face when trying to help their children with mathematics homework (Ginsburg, 2006; Remillard & Jackson, 2006) . Some authors tend to attribute this situation to the current approaches to the teaching and learning of mathematics. These approaches are largely based on a socioconstructivist view of how people learn (NCTM, 2000) . Because now mathematics is taught in a different way from years ago, parents may find it difficult to help their children (Peressini, 1997, 1998) . Other researchers affirm that there is a socio-cultural reason embedded in these kinds of situations (Civil & Bernier, 2006; Civil, Bernier, & Quintos, 2003) . The difference between mathematics instruction in the USA and in other countries (in our case, Mexico) may lead to a “gap” that is difficult to overcome for some families. Some parents leave the responsibility of education to the teacher, while others become active in looking for resources in the community to help their children. Our research centres on parents’engagement on teaching and learning, with a particular focus on mathematics.  \nTheoretical framework  \nThis approach to human activity is rooted in Vygotsky’s (1978) perspective of cultural practices where learning is a social process that is situated in the culture. That means that we cannot understand learning exclusively as a cognitive process,","cbCaiidd9BHLL1R5","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiidd9BHLL1R5","pdf",350572,18,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Theoretical framework","[{\"question\":\"What kinds of practices do Latino parents use to support children’s mathematics learning?\",\"answer\":\"Parents use community support, help from family members or neighbors, and deliberate activities that require children to display mathematical reasoning and knowledge.\"},{\"question\":\"How do parents’ own educational experiences influence their support for math?\",\"answer\":\"Parents often react to children’s mathematics education by looking back at how they were taught, which may make strategies feel unfamiliar and can lead to conflict or mutual learning.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does community involvement matter in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Community connections provide resources for homework help and compensate for barriers such as limited familiarity with pedagogical approaches and, in some cases, language barriers.\"}]","Parents’ interactions with their children when doing mathematics | PDF",1792065568,45]
