Welcome to the Mathematics Achievement Academy: Formative Assessment and Applying the Content Across the Strands, Grades K–1 trainer resource.

In the Mathematics Achievement Academy: Formative Assessment and Applying the Content Across the Strands, Grades K–1, participants will:

• Take a deeper look at two themes from the original Mathematics Achievement Academy, Grades K–1: formative assessment and content-area connections.
• Explore six components of formative assessment and related implementation considerations.
• Through hands-on activities focusing on measurement and data, make connections to whole number operations and fraction concepts.

Support for diverse learners continues through grade-level mathematics, problem solving experiences, and discourse strategies. The focus continues to be tools and supports for improving overall mathematics instruction, student success on statewide assessments, and post-secondary readiness.
