Children need to understand some basic mathematical ideas in order to measure accurately. First, they need to know what Goldilocks knows (as revealed by my extensive clinical interview with her),
This page consists of video clips that are designed to illustrate assessing students using the measurement assessment protocol. Please visit the Measurement Assessment Protocol for more details.
There are all types of patterns. This handout describes a variety of these patterns and how to assess children’s increasingly sophisticated knowledge of this important mathematical domain.
This video of four-year-old Ethan illustrates how young children engage in mathematics in real-life situations as he distributes rocks “fairly” using one-to-one correspondence.
