Given the differences in gender performance, and recognizing the role that gender considerations may play in teaching, this study focuses on teachers' considerations of gender during the lesson planning and implementation process.

“…In Israel, there is a large male-female discrepancy in enrollment for studies in mathematics-related fields in tertiary schools and universities (Zuzovsky, 2003) Gender differences in high school mathematics studies are a well-known phenomenon among teachers and educators and has been studied extensively, beginning from the 1970s (Amador, 2018;Yasar & Metin, 2016). Studies show that from about age 14 girls reach lower math achievements than boys, and girls more than boys avoid taking high level math electives (Amador, 2018;Yasar & Metin, 2016). As a result, when reaching tertiary education girls lack the mathematical readiness required in order to receive enrichment in technological subjects and the exact sciences and they enroll mainly for studies in nursing, the humanities, and the social sciences (Amador, 2018).…”
