CCGPS Math Practices
• “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)
SMP
• Which of the Standards for Mathematical Practice
can you identify?
• How have you begun implementing these in your
classroom instruction?
Standards for (Student) Mathematical Practice
1. Make sense of complex problems and persevere 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.

Connections to Literacy Activity
Quote:
“It is suggested that we shift the emphasis from teaching to learning,
from our experience to the children's, in fact, from our world to their world.”

Coordinate Algebra is the first in a sequence of three high school courses designed
to ensure career and college readiness. The course represents a discrete study of algebra with
correlated statistics applications and a bridge to the second course through coordinate
geometric topics.
