Here is a unit plan for incorporating social justice into mathematics:
understanding-by-design-unit-template (1)
In this unit, students will research a social justice issue. They will create a report (which they will actually send to someone) and a presentation on this issue and possible solutions to this issue. The requirement is that they must use mathematics somewhere in their report to help support their argument or issue.
