Abstract

We report findings on teachers’ noticing of features in the teacher resources of mathematics curriculum programs. Based on prior analysis, we selected teachers using one of two curriculum types: delivery mechanism or thinking device. The participating teachers and the curriculum programs aimed to align with the Common Core Standards for Mathematics, and thus, they ostensibly held a common aim for instruction. We analyzed 147 lesson planning interviews with 20 middle school mathematics teachers. We found that teachers attended to similar features of teacher resources; however, patterns for interpreting and planning decisions varied based on teachers’ orientations and curriculum type.
