The aim of this study was to explore teachers’ values about teaching mathematics in the classrooms which implemented Lesson Study and Open Approach as a teaching approach. The targeted group was 83 school teachers from 4 schools participating in a teacher professional development project. The data was gathered through teacher questionnaires, lesson observations and interviews. Data analysis is based on Bishop’s [Bishop, A. J. (1988). Mathematical Enculturation: A Cultural Perspective on Mathematics Education. Dordrecht. Netherlands: Kluwer] and Komin’s frameworks [Komin, S. (1990). The Psychology of the Thai People: Values and behavioral Patterns. Bangkok: National Institute of Development Administration]. The results from the implementation of Lesson Study and Open Approach in Thai classroom found the different of the roles and behaviors of teachers and students in classroom. The results revealed 3 kinds of values about teaching: Mathematical values, General educational values, Mathematics educational values and also found that most of the teachers valued problem solving as an innovative teaching approach as against traditional ap-proaches they were familiar with.
