The Cree Dictionary of Mathematical Terms with Visual Examples is the continuation of our work on composing Cree equivalents of mathematics terms. The glossary of mathematics terms was developed considering the topics of school curriculums of Canadian provinces. The Dictionary provides Cree equivalents of 176 mathematics terms and their definitions in English. The visual examples mainly contain Indigenous elements. The Dictionary was reviewed by Elders, Indigenous Knowledge Keepers, and Cree-speaking educators. Elders found it acceptable to use visual examples with Indigenous elements for educational purposes.
