3.0 Unpacking MP2 and MP3
Take a few minutes to read the reasoning and explaining practices; MP2 and MP3 . You will deepen your understanding of the various aspects of each standard as you work through this unit. While you are reading, pay attention to key words or phrases that seem particularly cogent or that puzzle or intrigue you. Make a note of questions you have about particular parts of these two mathematical practices and consider how the two standards are related.
MP2. Reasoning abstractly and quantitatively
MP3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
In your Metacognitive Journal reflect on some thoughts that surfaced as you read the two reasoning and explaining SMP .
