Geometry and the Algebras in the Academic Design Program are integrated into the rest of the program with a strong emphasis on the Standards for Mathematical
Practice. These are eight universal standards new within the Common Core that emphasize math thinking through all grades. They are as follows:
-
Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
-
Reason abstractly and quantitatively
-
Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
-
Model with mathematics
-
Use appropriate tools strategically
-
Attend to precision
-
Look for and make use of structure
-
Look for and express regularity in reasoning
