Summary:	"As schools shift to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, many high school teachers are left wondering what the new standards should actually look like in the classroom. By taking a look at real Common Core math classrooms in high schools across the country, this book shows how effective teachers are meeting the new requirements and covering topics such as proportional reasoning, problem solving, and geometry. Special Features: - Real examples of how teachers are meeting the CCSS in engaging ways - Commentary sections to show how you can implement the exemplary sample lessons in your own classroom - Practical, ready-to-use tools, including unit plans and classroom handouts"--
