Mathematics is made up of both nouns (e.g., fractions and functions, polygons and polynomials) and verbs (e.g., wondering, visualizing, justifying). In BC, the curricular competency learning standards define these verbs. In this initiative, we will explore ways to assess what students can do—not just what they know—using standards-based assessment practices. We will also discuss how to teach these competencies so that students develop proficiency when engaging in these competencies.
