Questions about Process Expectations

We have been asked to read through the Mathematical Processes section of the Ontario Math Curriculum Guide (Pages 12-17) and post questions that educators may have about these processes.  I have come up with three questions.

1. Under Reflecting: What are some strategies that educators could use to get students to reflect more deeply and meaningfully on their thought processes and their and their peers' thinking?

2. Under Connecting: How can we better plan our math programs to encourage connecting between skills, processes and mathematical concepts?

3. Under Selecting Tools and Computational Strategies: How can we fill in the gaps in efficient computational strategies (that will lead to stronger mental math skills) without feeding students processes in ways that go against learning problem-solving skills?
