Equality in the primary maths classroom
journal contribution
posted on 2013-08-16, 11:51 authored by Ian JonesIan Jones, Matthew InglisMatthew Inglis, Camilla GilmoreCamilla GilmoreHow primary pupils think about the equals sign is
very important for their arithmetic competence, and
for their later learning of algebra at secondary
school. Research suggests that children think about
the equals sign in three different ways. In this article
we explain these three different ways of seeing the
equals sign, and describe a web-based teaching
intervention that can promote a more sophisticated
understanding.
