This book highlights new developments in the teaching and learning
of algebraic thinking with 5- to 12-year-olds. Based on empirical
findings gathered in several countries on five continents, it
provides a wealth of best practices for teaching early algebra.
Building on the work of the ICME-13 (International Congress on
Mathematical Education) Topic Study Group 10 on Early Algebra,
well-known authors such as Luis Radford, John Mason, Maria Blanton,
Deborah Schifter, and Max Stephens, as well as younger scholars
from Asia, Europe, South Africa, the Americas, Australia and New
Zealand, present novel theoretical perspectives and their latest
findings. The book is divided into three parts that focus on (i)
epistemological/mathematical aspects of algebraic thinking, (ii)
learning, and (iii) teaching and teacher development. Some of the
main threads running through the book are the various ways in which
structures can express themselves in children's developing
algebraic thinking, the roles of generalization and natural
language, and the emergence of symbolism. Presenting vital new data
from international contexts, the book provides additional support
for the position that essential ways of thinking algebraically need
to be intentionally fostered in instruction from the earliest
grades.
