This article aims to analyze the structural similarities and differences of the frameworks of the Evaluation System of Basic Education (Saeb) and the National Assessment of Educational Progress (Naep). More specifically, it seeks to compare the descriptors of the theme “Space and Shape”, tested on the ninth grade of the Saeb, with those of Geometry, tested on the eighth grade of the Naep. This evaluation seeks to produce information on curricular trends which underlie the choices of skills measured in these assessment systems, that could guide the updating of the mathematical frameworks of the Saeb. The results suggest that both frameworks are similar in the separation of knowledge objects by related content areas and in addressing various cognitive operations; on the other hand, the ways in which the descriptors are presented in each matrix are different. Some similarities between the skills measured in both tests in the analysis of the descriptors of the theme “Space and Shape” can be observed.
