record the tme you spend interactng with and
using math. Make sure you record at least ten
hours of actvity. You may repeat an actvity
more than once and you may record it each tme
you play it, but you must do at least three difer-
ent actvites. There is a log inside this brochure
for you to record your math actvites.

2. reason abstractly and quanttatvely.

critque the reasoning of others.
4. model with mathematcs by applying
the mathematcs they know to solve
problems arising in everyday life,
society, and the workplace.
5. use appropriate tools strategically.
6. communicate, measure and calculate
with precision.
7. look closely to discern a patern or
structure.
8. notce if calculatons are repeated,
