CCSS Standards for Mathematical Practice



What are SMPs?

Common Core Standards are new to a lot of teachers.  One portion of the standards that teachers sometimes forget to focus on are the Standards for Mathematical Practice or SMPs.  SMPs are math standards that describe a variety of skills that teachers should seek to develop in all of their students.  SMPs are listed with K-5 math standards to reflect the need to connect the mathematical practices to content in instruction.  Standards 1 and 6 should be practiced daily in the classroom!  


Standard 1:  Make sense of problems and 
                  persevere in solving them.

Standard 6:  Attend to precision.

I've updated my Standards for Mathematical Practice Posters.  Posters include "I Can" statements to help students understand the meaning of the standards.
