Moving students to higher-order thinking isn’t just about using the right verbs; it’s about how learning builds over time. In this activity, you’ll analyze how math tasks progress across levels of thinking and identify what truly pushes student thinking forward.
begin activity
- Define numerator and denominator
- Solve fraction addition problems
- Identify fractions in visual models
- Analyze why common denominators are needed
- Create a real-world problem involving fraction addition
Topic: Fractions (Addition)
Which sequence best moves students from lower-order to higher-order thinking?
- Define numerator and denominator
- Identify fractions in visual models
- Solve fraction addition problems
- Create a real-world problem involving fraction addition
- Evaluate which strategies are most efficient
- Define numerator and denominator
- Identify fractions in visual models
- Solve fraction addition problems
- Analyze why common denominators are needed
- Evaluate which strategies are most efficient
That's it!
This sequence builds logically from foundational knowledge to reasoning and evaluation, supporting deeper understanding of fraction concepts.

Topic: Patterns & Algebraic Thinking
1. Identify a pattern in a sequence
2. Describe the pattern in words
3. Evaluate whether a given rule matches the pattern
4. Create a new pattern
Topic: Area & Perimeter
1. Define area and perimeter
2. Calculate area of rectangles
3. Create a floor plan using area
4. Explain the difference between area and perimeter

Strong learning progressions are intentionally sequenced so each task builds toward deeper thinking. Students move from understanding to applying, analyzing, and extending their ideas with increasing independence. Continue exploring how to design these progressions in Canvas.
Think about it...
This sequence disrupts the progression by jumping into problem-solving before students have fully built conceptual understanding.
Think about it...
This sequence moves into application and creation but misses an explicit step where students analyze the reasoning behind fraction addition.
