"This is a resource that could be used by new and experienced K-8
teachers as they deepen their understanding of each SMP or as they
explore different tasks used with their students. It would also be
a powerful tool used by a data team or mathematics departmentto
explore different ways to deepen students' experiences and use the
data from these tasks to reflect on their own practices. As
teachers seek tasks that require students to persevere in their
thinking and problem solving, this book is a worthy resource. The
author provides a thoughtful collection of ways for readers to
facilitate students' development of these practice standards as
they learn what it takes to think like a
mathematician."--Mathematics Teacher
"Teachers, teacher educators, and preservice teachers in K-grade 8
can all benefit from this book...This book uses coursework that
addresses the Common Core State Standards and methods and content
courses for elementary and secondary school teachers. For all
teachers, having access to the problems as a resource is by itself
worth the price of the book." --Teaching Children Mathematics
