1. a) How many Standards for Mathematical Practice are
there in the new CCSS?
Eight SMPs
b) List them.
1. Make sense of problems and perserve in solving them.
2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of
others.
4. Model with mathematics.
5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
6. Attend to precision.
7. Look for and make use of structure.
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
2. The NCSCOS uses different labels for various
components of the standards. What is the
CCSS equivalent for the following?
GOAL
Strand
OBJECTIVE
INDICATORS
Cluster
Domain
Standard
“Unpacking” documents
3. a) How many conceptual categories are there in the High
School CCSS?
Six Conceptual Categories
b) List them.
Number and Quantity; Algebra; Functions;
Modeling; Geometry; Statistics and Probability
4. What is unique about the “modeling” Conceptual Category?
There is no list of standards for this category; it is
integrated within the five remaining conceptual
categories. It does not stand alone.
5. Why are some standards labeled with a “+”?
Standards labeled with a “+” indicate additional
mathematics that students should learn in order to
take advanced courses like AP Calculus, AP Statistics,
or discrete mathematics.
6. a) How many model pathways are there in high
school?
Two model pathways
b) List them.
Traditional Pathway
“International” Integrated Pathway
7. What is in Appendix A?
Appendix A contains model course pathways
that include the organization of CCS standards
to be taught in high school mathematics
courses. It also contains pertinent information
concerning middle school accelerated
pathways and their associated standards.
8. What does the label F.IF.7 represent?
HS Conceptual Category: Functions
Domain: Interpreting Functions
Standard #7
9. What are an “Ah Ha” and an “Oh No” you
have about the CCSS?

Seeing Structure in Expressions
Interpret the structure of expressions.
1.
Code
A-SSE
Interpret expressions that represent a quantity in terms of its context. 
a. Interpret parts of an expression, such as terms, factors, and coefficients.
Modeling Symbol
b. Interpret complicated expressions by viewing one or more of their parts as a single entity. For example, interpret P(1+r)n as
the product of P and a factor not depending on P.
2.
Use the structure of an expression to identify ways to rewrite it. For example, see x4 – y4 as (x2)2 – (y2)2, thus recognizing it as a
difference of squares that can be factored as (x2 – y2)(x2 + y2).
Write expressions in equivalent forms to solve problems.
3.
Standard
Choose and produce an equivalent form of an expression to reveal and explain properties of the quantity represented by the
expression.
a. Factor a quadratic expression to reveal the zeros of the function it defines.
A.SSE.2
b. Complete the square in a quadratic expression to reveal the maximum or minimum value of the function it defines.
c. Use the properties of exponents to transform expressions for exponential functions. For example the expression 1.15t can be
rewritten as (1.151/12)12t ≈ 1.01212t to reveal the approximate equivalent monthly interest rate if the annual rate is 15%.
4.
Derive the formula for the sum of a finite geometric series (when the common ratio is not 1), and use the formula to solve
problems. For example, calculate mortgage payments.
CCSS Math Grades 9 - 12

Grades 9 – 12 require the application
of mathematics to real world situations
and issues.

Modeling is a requirement under the
Standards for Mathematical Practice.

Focus

Key ideas, understandings, and skills are
identified

Deep learning of concepts is emphasized

That is, time is spent on a topic and on
learning it well. This counters the “mile wide,
inch deep” criticism leveled at most current
U.S. standards.

Standards for Mathematical
Practice Reflection
Why?


Students who do not understand the
mathematics cannot engage in the
mathematical practices.
They rely too much on memorizing
procedures.
Standards for Mathematical
Practice Reflection Activity
