Teaching Three-Digit Addition With Differentiated Instruction And Assessment Strategies, Regan Catterson, Saundra Shillingstad
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
This capstone project includes a synopsis of the differentiated instructional and assessment strategies that were integrated throughout a second-grade math unit. The unit of instruction focused on three-digit addition with regrouping. The unit was taught over six days between the pre-test and post-test. Students were tested on their understanding of place value with three-digits, regrouping with addition, and solving three-digit addition from an equation. Following the analysis of student data, it was noted that students’ understanding, and performance increased throughout this unit by using a variety of instructional strategies and assessment methods. I collected and analyzed the pre- and post-assessment …

Open-Ended (Extended/Constructed) Response Questions As Predictors Of Success On Subsequent State Mathematics Examination : The Influence Of Mathematical Awareness And Conceptual Knowledge, Kathy Ann Gullie
Legacy Theses & Dissertations (2009 - 2024)
This study investigated the predictive ability of students' responses to open-ended, constructed/extended questions in third and fourth grade mathematics content sub-categories on subsequent fifth grade mathematics achievement proficiency levels. Open-ended, extended/constructed response questions reflected content as outlined by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (2007) in statistics and probability, number sense, numeration and operations, geometry, algebra, and measurement. Archival data from over 300 third, fourth and fifth grade students in one public school in New York State during the 2003- 2009 academic school years were utilized. Third grade predictor variables included statistics and probability, number sense, numeration and operations, …
