Unit 5: Seeing Structure and Generalizing (MP7 and MP8)

LEARNING OBJECTIVES FOR UNIT 5
- You will be able to describe why, to be successful
in mathematics, all students need to see structure and
generalize. - You will be able to explain what it means for students to look for
and make use of structure. - You will be able to explain what it means for students to look for and
express regularity in repeated reasoning.
This unit examines MP7 and MP8, the practices that relate to seeing mathematical structure and generalization. You will deepen your understanding of the various aspects of each standard as you work through this unit.
