Instructional Shifts in Mathematics
Learning Activity
The standards for kindergarten through grade eight (K–8) prepare students for higher mathematics, beginning with Mathematics I or Algebra I, and serve as the foundation on which more advanced mathematical knowledge can be built. The standards for higher mathematics (high school–level standards) prepare students for college, careers, and productive citizenship. In short, the standards are a progression of mathematical learning.
The standards are based on three major principles which are meant to fuel greater achievement in a rigorous curriculum, in which students acquire conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency, and the ability to apply mathematics to solve problems.
For this activity, read on each of the 3 principles and watch the embedded videos through the link in the Resources section.
