Math Reasoning for a New Age
Many of us learned mathematics as
a set of disconnected rules, facts,
and procedures.
The challenge is to foster true
numerical reasoning by getting
students to go beyond the
memorized rules and procedures.

Let’s Explore a Task
Draw a game piece out of your bucket, don’t let your partner see
Each player will tell the partner the
total value of their coins.
Players will take turns asking each
other yes/no questions to try to solve
what coins you have, and how many
coins you have.

“Our previous assessment, the CRCT, set some of the lowest expectations for
student proficiency in the nation, and that cannot continue. Georgia
Milestones sets higher standards for our students and evens the playing field
with the rest of the nation – and that’s essential if our students are going to
succeed in college and their chosen careers, both of which are nationally
competitive arenas. We will continue to increase our supports for both
students and teachers to ensure this test is more meaningful for all
involved.”
-Richard Woods, State School Superintendent

Math Constructed Response:
Noteworthy Trends
For multistep processes, students were sometimes able to start the
process correctly but were unsure how to complete the process.
Students may not know key math terms or confuses terms (e.g.,
complimentary vs. supplementary; or diameter vs. radius)
When asked to provide an explanation, students sometimes tended to
restate the information given.
Students used the wrong operation – when in doubt, add.
Students do not answer the question that is asked:
– Example: the prompt provides a scenario and asks for the probability of two
different outcomes both occurring; the students provides the two individual
probabilities instead.

Achievement Levels
Beginning Learners do not yet demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students need substantial academic support to be prepared for the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness.
Developing Learners demonstrate partial proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students need additional academic support to ensure success in the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness.
Proficient Learners demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are prepared for the next grade level or course and are on track for college and career readiness.
Distinguished Learners demonstrate advanced proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are well prepared for the next grade level or course and are well prepared for college and career readiness.

Promotion/Retention Status
• Determines promotion/retention status in grade 3 (reading only), grade 5 (reading and mathematics), and grade 8 (reading and mathematics)– Reading: a student who has a Below Grade Level Reading status will
require remediation and retesting in ELA
– Mathematics: a student who is classified as a Beginning Learner will require remediation and retesting in mathematics
