Index of Classroom Challenges

Classroom Challenges are lessons that support teachers in formative assessment. There are 100 lessons in total, 20 at each grade from 6 to 8 and 40 for ‘Career and College Readiness’ at High School Grades 9 and above. Some lessons are focused on developing math concepts, others on solving non-routine problems.

The Brief Guide for teachers and administrators (PDF) is recommended reading before using these lessons for the first time.

Each lesson is downloadable as an all-in-one PDF to print out, and a supporting PowerPoint presentation.
