CCGPS “The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of expertise that mathematics educators at all levels should seek to develop in their students. These practices rest on important ‘processes and proficiencies’ with longstanding importance in mathematics education.” (CCSS, 2010)
Standards for Mathematical Practice • In small groups: • Read Your Mathematical Practice • Discuss • Importance in a mathematics classroom • How the practice can engage students in learning • Summarize the essence of your mathematical practice in one student friendly sentence.
