Resumen
Rational number understanding is viewed as fundamental and critical to developing future knowledge and skills, and is therefore essential for success in the 21st century world. This report describes a provisional learning progression for rational numbers, specifically as embodied in fractions and decimals, that was designed to be useful towards the development of formative assessment.
