About this title

Synopsis

Examines how teachers can make careful analyses of students' work to uncover error patterns and gain knowledge of a student's strengths on which to base future instruction.

From the Publisher

This text teaches students how to uncover the "wrong" patterns behind the computational errors children make. Through its unique approach, and the generous use of actual students' samples, future teachers not only read about error patterns, they actually encounter them...and learn to correct them. They learn to identify typical error patterns; receive feedback on their diagnosis; and gain an understanding of why a child might have adopted an incorrect procedure.
