Integrating Indigenous language revitalization principles into math/STEM classrooms can support both language acquisition and math fluency. In a rural community currently without an immersion school, the Indigenous Math Video Project develops Ojibwe and Michif language videos aligning with K-12 math/STEM standards. Videos allow more comprehensible input for students, teachers, and community members. This article focuses on the development and philosophy of the project, the first cycle of development, and the next steps. The study confirms the continuation of the project and that students desire videos with age-appropriate math topics and increased video quality
