Schools & Teaching

Good math teachers have a robust repertoire of strategies to move students’ learning forward. This K-12 bundle includes the bestsellers Mathematics Formative Assessment Volume 1 & Mathematics Formative Assessment Volume 2. Award-winning author Page Keeley and mathematics expert Cheryl Rose Tobey help provide you with the tools to improve student outcomes with formative assessment classroom techniques (FACTS) that embedded throughout a cycle of instruction. Descriptions of how the FACTs promote learning and inform teaching, including illustrative examples, support the inextricable link between instruction and learning. The authors provide important guidance with each technique, including usage tips and caveats, implementation examples, and suggested modifications. Research shows that formative assessment has the power to significantly improve learning, and its many benefits include modify instruction for diverse learners, increased student engagement, seamlessly embed formative assessment throughout the stages of instruction, and many more. With this bundle, you can build a bridge between your students’ initial ideas and correct mathematical thinking with this one-of-a-kind resource!
