S  Effective math instruction and planning for instruction requires
careful attention to evidence of student thinking.
S  Using learning trajectories/progressions to understand evidence of
student thinking provides actionable information based on
research on how students learn specific mathematics concepts
S  The “essence” of formative assessment is the relentless attention
to evidence of student understanding and intentional and
systematic use of the evidence for planning and instruction.

Learning Trajectories
S  “Learning progressions are descriptions of the successively
more sophisticated ways of thinking about a topic that can
follow one another as children learn about and investigate a
topic” (NRC, 2007, p. 214)
S  Developmental progressions of strategies, concepts and
levels of student thinking in particular mathematical
domains
S  Links research on learning and instructional practice
