Attention to proof in the geometry curriculum is strengthened by a focus on reasoning and sense making. The authors examine the four key elements (conjecturing about geometric objects, construction and evaluation of geometric arguments, multiple geometric approaches and geometric connections and modeling) identified in Focus in High School Mathematics: Reasoning and Sense Making in more detail and elaborates on the associated reasoning habits.
