Module content overview: Scope of this session

The highlighted goals are focal in this session; others goals will be focal in other sessions.

Mathematics	Student thinking
recognizing the mathematical goal as the first component of a complete Learning Trajectory understanding principles of measurement (e.g., attribute, conservation, transitivity, equal partitioning, units and unit iteration, accumulation, origin, and relation between number and measurement) understanding how measurement of length, area, and volume are represented and developed in the CCSS understanding how measurement connects with the CCSS standards for mathematical practice understanding concepts and skills involved in measuring length, area, and volume understanding connections between length, area, and volume measurement and between metric measurements for each	recognizing student development as the second component of a complete Learning Trajectory understanding children’s development of measurement through Learning Trajectories for length, area, and volume recognizing principles of measurement in student work interpreting student work on measurement tasks using the levels of the Learning Trajectory for length measurement interpreting student work on measurement tasks using the levels of the Learning Trajectory for area measurement interpreting student work on measurement tasks using the levels of the Learning Trajectory for volume measurement
Teaching practice	Learning from practice
recognizing instruction as the third component of a complete Learning Trajectory using anecdotal notes to document what students say and do when working on measurement tasks connecting measurement activities in curricula to measurement Learning Trajectory levels modifying measurement tasks to target different and/or particular Learning Trajectory levels	understanding the anecdotal notes workshop process using the anecdotal notes workshop to improve the practice of note taking using the anecdotal notes workshop to improve teaching
