Reasoning
Analyzing and Learning from Student Work
This protocol provides a set of guidelines for structuring
conversations among teachers about student work. The
goal is to foster a common understanding of student
learning expectations for mathematics and to provide a
collaborative forum for examining student work to inform
mathematics instruction.
L.I. & S.C.
Learning Intention- We are learning how to examine
student work for the purpose of teacher feedback.
Success Criteria- We will be able to provide feedback to
teachers and The Learning Team on student work.

How does this Protocol work?
1. Getting Started
Facilitator identified.
Volunteer presents student work.
Participants review the work silently.
2. Discussing the Work
Round 1- Describe: What do you notice about the
student work?
Round 2- Interpret: What do the students understand?
Round 3- Question: What questions do you have about
the work?
3. Reflections from the Presenting Teacher
Comments on the student work and responds to
questions.
Shares insights from surprising or unexpected
comments.
Repeat Steps 1–3 with another presenting teacher.
4. Suggestions for Teaching and Learning
Based on the discussion of the students’ performance,
what might you suggest doing next with the class?
Describe ways the assessment did or did not give
students an opportunity to demonstrate what they
knew.
5. Debriefing
What are we learning through this process?
How can the process be improved?
Suggested Update
Common Core State Stands Suggestions for Teaching and Learning- Describe in
what way(s) the assessment is aligned to CCSSM and/or Mathematical Practice
Standards? Were students able to demonstrate a level of proficiency? What teacher
moves might you carry out to support students in their learning?
ACM Debriefing
Whatever the enterprise, having moral
purpose makes excellent business sense
in the long run.
