How is your school implementing the practice standards?

Math Vision You should expect to see students working through partially formed (or even incorrect) ideas about mathematics. They also should expect to see teachers who are pushing their students to think like mathematicians— to justify their ideas, communicate with peers, and construct arguments, even if those arguments lead to some interesting tangents. These are all necessary steps for students to take as they develop enduring understandings about mathematics. The Right Equation for Math Teaching, Schifter and Granosky, 2012

Playing Basketball Treena won a 7-day trip worth 3600 AED to the Pro Shot Basketball Camp. Round-trip travel expenses to the camp are 720 AED by air or 360 AED by another carrier. At the camp she must choose between a week of individual instruction at 240 AED a day or a week of group instruction at 160 AED A day. Treena's food and other expenses are fixed at 180 AED a day. If she does not plan to spend any money other than the trip amount won, what are all choices of travel and instruction plans she could afford to make? Explain which option you think Treena should select and why.

Math Instruction that Supports the CCSS  Watch the video clip of a math classroom and look for evidence of how the teacher supports the development of the mathematical practices as well as evidence that the students display the practices. 1. Make sense of 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.
