Math Team Goal Ideas

From: Using the PLC Structure to Better Understand how to Investigate the Iowa Core in Math: Part II, Brian Townsend, University of Northern Iowa
The presentation linked above does a good job linking Math Practice standards to common classroom/learning issues students and teachers might have. Taking a challenging problem and making it procedural is certainly a mistake that I continue to make as I struggle to get my students to think more.

I thought this document might be good to read over as we consider what Math Practice Standards we should focus on as a PLC.
