Our goal is to develop a student’s ability to think and reason mathematically using the standards of mathematical practice, which include:

• Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
• Reason abstractly and quantitatively 
• Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
• Model with mathematics
• Use appropriate tools strategically
• Attend to precision
• Look for and make use of structure
• Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning
