Assessing and Describing Sixth-Grade Students Use of Number Sense to Demonstrate an Understanding of Mathematics Concepts
Abstract
dc:description.abstract<p>Eighteen sixth-grade students in a selected elementary school of a large school district were chosen to participate in a study to individually assess and describe their use of number sense, which demonstrated their understanding of mathematics concepts. The instrument used was teacher made and consisted of nine mathematics problems. The instrument was given to each student in a one-on-one interview. The findings suggested that developing number sense is essential for improving mathematics performance.</p>
