National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) - ANSWER-NCTM was
established in 1920, has more than 100,000 members and 250 affiliates in the
U.S. & Canada. NCTM published Principles and Standards for Mathematics.
What are the two common themes of teaching mathematics? - ANSWER-

,Representation (PSSM) - ANSWER-Means to model and use multiple
representations.
Communication (PSSM) - ANSWER-Means that students are given
opportunities to use precise math language and notation.
Reasoning & Proof (PSSM) - ANSWER-Means that students are evaluating
conjectures and analyzing evidence.
Connections (PSSM) - ANSWER-Means that students are taking time to self
assess and monitor and reflect on their mathematical work.
True - ANSWER-True or False

is, how did they solve it, why they did what they did.
Elaborating - ANSWER-When you asked students to further discuss a comment
that Dave made. "Can you give me an example of that?" "Have you considered
this?"
Procedural Knowledge - ANSWER-knowledge that is demonstrated when we
perform a task; "knowing how"
Refers to how to complete an algorithm or a procedure.
