8 Mathematical Practices

What is the first standard for mathematical practices?

• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them

• Model with mathematics

• Reason abstractly and quantitatively

• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others

How should students approach problems according to the first standard?

• Give up if it's too hard

• Ask the teacher for the answer

• Try to understand problems and keep working to solve them

• Ignore the problem

What does the second standard for mathematical practices involve?

• Using the right tools to solve problems

• Thinking about math in many ways and showing how numbers work together

• Using math to show thinking about real-life problems

• Finding patterns and using them again

What is the student-friendly language for the third standard?

• I use math to show my thinking about real-life problems

• I can explain my thinking and will ask others about their ideas

• I work carefully and think about how I solve problems correctly

• I try to find patterns and ask myself if it makes sense to use them again

What does the fourth standard encourage students to do?

• Look for and make use of structure

• Use appropriate tools strategically

• Model with mathematics

• Attend to precision

What is the fifth standard for mathematical practices?

• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others

• Reason abstractly and quantitatively

• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them

• Use appropriate tools strategically

What does the sixth standard emphasize?

• Using math to show thinking about real-life problems

• Finding patterns and using them again

• Working carefully and thinking about how to solve problems correctly

• Thinking about math in many ways

What is the student-friendly language for the seventh standard?

• I use procedures and strategies I know to solve new problems

• I use the right tools and plan how to solve problems

• I can explain my thinking and will ask others about their ideas

• I try to understand problems and keep working to solve them

What is the student-friendly language for the eighth standard?

• I can explain my thinking and will ask others about their ideas

• I try to find patterns and ask myself if it makes sense to use them again

• I use procedures and strategies I know to solve new problems

• I use the right tools and plan how to solve problems

What is the purpose of using kid-friendly language in teaching mathematical practices?

• To make math more fun

• To reduce the workload of teachers

• To simplify the curriculum

• To make it easier for students to understand academic language
