What is each student doing/thinking? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Sample Response What's the student doing? What could you suggest to remediate this problem? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 37 43 85 -4 -1 -3 ---- ---- ----- 23 32 72 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 32 50 24 -6 -8 -5 ---- ---- ---- 34 58 21 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 53 72 45 -14 -56 -19 ---- ---- ---- 49 26 36 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------
The following arithmetic questions show systematic addition error responses for five different children. There are three sample errors for each child, so each question in a set of three questions contains the same error.
