Mathematical Practices & Discourse

Communicating in Mathematical Ways Poster
Adapted from OpenSciEd’s Communicating in Scientific Ways to support mathematical discourse.

Standards for Mathematical Practice (SMPs)
The SMPs describe the mathematical expertise students should develop. Pages 11–14 outline the eight practices, and page 14 explains their connection to content standards. Beginning on page 16, examples illustrate how practices connect to specific standards.
