The Formative 5 Book

NCTM Past President, Francis "Skip" Fennell, and nationally-recognized mathematics educators Beth McCord Kobett and Jonathan (Jon) Wray, offer five of the most impactful, proven assessment techniques-Observations, Interviews, "Show Me," Hinge Questions, and Exit Tasks- you can implement, every day.

K-8 teachers of mathematics will learn to

Focus on assessment for learning rather than assessment of learningDirectly connect assessment to planning and in-the-moment instructionImplement effective classroom questioning, discussions, and learning tasksProvide success criteria and feedback that moves students forwardIntegrate the Standards for Mathematical PracticeActivate student self-assessors who take ownership of their learning

Includes a book study guide, tools and templates, and a companion website with downloadables and multi-media examples of student discussion in the classroom. The Formative 5 will help you build your mathematics-related formative assessment capacity through daily use of these five key techniques.
