In this paper we describe a framework for the identification and discussion of prospective elementary school teachers' mathematics content knowledge as evidenced in their teaching. This framework--"the knowledge quartet"--emerged from intensive scrutiny of 24 videotaped lessons. Application of the "quartet" in lesson observation is illustrated with reference to a particular lesson taught by one trainee teacher. [For complete proceedings, see ED489597.]
