dc.description.abstract	This paper reports on the teaching approaches and strategies adopted by primary-school teachers in their endeavour to cater to the mathematical needs of immigrant students in New Zealand. It focuses on the needs of immigrant students alongside the philosophy of the New Zealand mathematics curriculum. It identifies strategies employed by teachers to strike an optimum balance between providing an equitable learning environment that caters to the needs of immigrant students and implementing the New Zealand mathematics curriculum. The outcomes have implications for all primary-school teachers in New Zealand who have immigrant students in their classrooms.	en
