Assessment for and as Learning using the Mathematical Processe

As I was looking for articles and reports about ability grouping and teaching in Mathematics. I came across a really neat PDF file. It's not related to ability grouping however it's something I hope to bring into my teaching practises in regards to assessment!!!

The document contains two charts:

1st chart- deals with reasoning and proving, reflectings, selecting tools and computational strategies, connecting and represents (areas that are always troublesome for my students for sure!)
- it provides a guide for teachers on what we should see students doing, sample questions and sample feedback

2nd chart- Indicates key features for Effective Mathematics Instruction
- Encouraging students, ongoing assessment for learning, Building Meaningful success, and utilise many Approaches!! (provides indicators and questions to ask!)

Have a look!
