"Reasoning" and "sense making" - or "understanding", "fluency", "problem solving" and "reasoning" in the Australian Curriculum: Mathematics - are critical complements to the content knowledge we expect students to learn as they complete their schooling in mathematics. This book provides a broad framework for achieving a focus on reasoning and sense making in the secondary mathematics classroom. It goes on to illustrate this through some practical examples in each of the key contents areas of the curriculum. An essential addition to your personal or faculty library as you strive to realise the important emphasis on the "how" of doing mathematics in the Australian Curriculum at the secondary level.
