Using Assessments to Guide Instruction
Please join us for a four part series to examine how number sense assessments can guide instructional decisions. We’ll discuss “the why” for conducting math interviews with students, how to group students, how to choose tasks based on the interview data, how to leverage important models for instruction, such as “open number lines,” and bring attention to important domains for numeracy, such as fractions.
