Go Math & Standards for
Mathematical Practices
By Amanda Davis & Jacque Ketchum
Kelly Springs Elementary School
Standard 1.Makes sense of problems and perseveres in solving them.
Understands the problem and
looks for entry points to its
solution
Designs a plan
Analyzes information
(givens, constrains,
relationships, goals)
Checks their answers to
problems and ask, “Does this make sense?”
Monitors and evaluates the progress and
changes course as necessary

Standard 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
Makes sense of
quantities and
relationships
Represents a
problem symbolical
ly Understands and uses
properties of
operations

Standard 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
Asks useful questions to clarify
or improve the arguments
Listens or reads the arguments of others
Communicates and defends their mathematical
reasoning using objects, drawings, diagrams, actions
Decide if the arguments of others
make sense
Makes conjectures and attempts to
prove or disprove through examples
and counterexamples

Standard 4. Model with mathematics.
Apply reasoning to create a plan or analyze a real world problem
Applies formulas/equation
s
Makes assumptions and approximations to make a problem
simpler Checks to see if an answer makes
sense and changes a model when
necessary Video

Standard 5. Use appropriate tools strategically.
• Identifies relevant external math resources and uses them to pose or solve problemsCenters
• Makes sound decisions about the use of specific tools
Calculators
• Uses technological tools to explore and deepen understanding of concepts
Computers

Standard 6. Attend to precision.
Communicates and defends their mathematical reasoning
using objects, drawings, diagrams, actions
Decide if the arguments of others make
sense
Listen or reads the
arguments of others
Uses definitions
and previously established results in
constructing arguments
Ask useful questions to
clarify or improve the arguments

Standard 7. Look for and make use of structure.
Looks for patterns or structure
Recognize the significance in concepts and models and can apply strategies for solving related problems
Looks for the big picture or overview

Standard 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Notices repeated calculations and looks for general
methods and shortcuts
Continually evaluates the
reasonableness of their results while attending to details and
makes generalizations
based on findings
Solves problems arising in
everyday life
