Before giving your students cards from the set, use this Pretest to determine if they have a sufficient foundation to begin this box or to determine what skills and concepts to reinforce.  \nOnce you have scored the Pretest, use the Cards section (see number 2 below) to direct you to the appropriate cards in the Thinking Kids’TM Math boxed set. After students have completed the cards for Grade K, have them complete the Posttest so that you can assess mastery and identify students who need reteaching and further practice.  \nHere are the specific features of this assessment:  \n1 NCTM standard that the activity addresses  \n2 Corresponding Thinking Kids’TM Math card(s)(Use these cards for teaching, reinforcing, or remediating the standard.)  \n3  \nGrade level and problem number  \n4 Symbol for the NCTM strand covered in the activities (See page 1 for a key depicting each strand.)  \n5 Test item that relates to the standard and assesses students’ readiness levels  \n6 Activity answers and corresponding cards to use to assess the standard  \nReprinted with permission from Principles and Standards for School Mathematics, copyright 2000 by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) .
