Description of Presentation:

We investigate teachers’ mathematical knowledge for teaching (MKT) solids of revolution in the middle grades. We use data from four focus group sessions with pre- and in-service teachers who discussed a series of animated vignettes. The vignettes provoked participants’ to draw upon different components of their MKT for scaffolding students’ work.
