At Inside Mathematics, we’ve assembled multiple ways for educators to begin to transform their teaching practices. You might be in search of materials and tasks you can use immediately with your students; you can search by grade level and content area below to find core mathematical principles as well as materials developed by the Mathematics Assessment Resource Service (MARS). If you want to develop your understanding of the national Common Core Standards for Mathematical Practice #2, look here.

Good mathematical practices benefit from the coherence and focus of the Common Core Mathematics Standards.

The Common Core Standards have content standards, as well as standards of practice. The standards of practice help students develop habits of mind that enable them to model mathematics to problems arising outside of the mathematics classroom. The math practice standards also ask students to use mathematics tools in flexible, sophisticated, and relevant ways across disciplines.

Today's math curriculum is teaching students to expect -- and excel at -- paint-by-numbers classwork, robbing kids of a skill more important than solving problems: formulating them. In his talk, Dan Meyer shows classroom-tested math exercises that prompt students to stop and think. (Filmed at TEDxNYED.)

A collaboration between the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and the CK-12 Foundation, this book provides high school mathematics and physics teachers with an introduction to the main principles of modeling and simulation used in science and engineering. An appendix of lesson plans is included.

Developed by one of the authors of the Common Core State Standards, the seven criteria for resources outlined in this document should guide development of curriculum modules and accompanying materials. Seven criteria are: Promote Effectiveness, Quality Materials, Develop Mathematical Practices, Balance of Approach, Capacity-building, Content Alignment, Comprehensiveness.

This text presents a task-based approach to mathematics that first develops understanding. It focuses on the Common Core State Mathematical Practice standards and develops these through experiential learning. Students are confronted with an engaging problem and then allowed to grapple with it. As students' ideas emerge, take form, and are shared, the teacher orchestrates student discussions and explorations toward a focused mathematical goal. Students justify their own thing while clarifying, describing, comparing, and questioning the thinking of others. The Mathematics Vision Project provides a continuum of mathematics instruction that addresses the conceptual, procedural and representational thinking; depth of knowledge and assessment needed to attain to the standards.

This video lesson shows students that math can play a role in understanding how an infectious disease spreads and how it can be controlled. During this lesson, students will see and use both deterministic and probabilistic models and will learn by doing through role-playing exercises. The primary exercises between video segments of this lesson are class-intensive simulation games in which members of the class 'infect' each other under alternative math modeling assumptions about disease progression. Also there is an occasional class discussion and local discussion with nearby classmates.

This task provides an opportunity to work on the Standard for Mathematical Practice 3 Construct Viable Arguments and Critique the Reasoning of Others.

The task provides an opportunity for students to engage in Mathematical Practice Standard 4: Model with mathematics.

In this four part series, we visit the classrooms of two partner teachers who plan all their lessons together but have totally different styles inside the classroom. See the same lesson unfold in each class, the class structures used by each teacher, and the group work formats used by each.
