MATH REASONING
INVENTORY (MRI)

MRI is an free online formative assessment tool designed to make teachers’ classroom instruction more effective. The MRI questions focus on number and operations and are based on content from the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics prior to sixth grade. They are questions that we expect…and hope…all middle school students to answer successfully.

ASSOCIATION OF MATHEMATICS TEACHER EDUCATORS (AMTE)

AMTE is the largest professional organization devoted to the improvement of mathematics teacher education — it includes over 1,000 members supporting the preservice education and professional development of K-12 teachers of mathematics. Members include professors, researchers, teacher-leaders, school mathematics coordinators, policy experts, graduate students, and others.

NCSM – LEADERSHIP IN MATHEMATICS EDUCATION
