Demetra Pitta-Pantazi; Maria Chimoni; Constantinos Christou – International Journal of Science and Mathematics Education, 2025
This article reports on an empirical study that investigates the way students' performance in solving arithmetical tasks may be related to their performance in solving algebraic tasks. The sample consisted of 203 Grade 6 students. The arithmetical tasks involved arithmetical expressions with known quantities, whereas the algebraic tasks involved…

Karen Zwanch; Brooke Mullins – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 2025
To understand the ways that manipulatives might support changes in students' reasoning about algebraic generalizations, a constructivist teaching experiment was conducted with two sixth-grade students. The students interpreted numerical situations with units of one and could construct units of units in mental activity. Initially, the students'…

Powell, Sarah R.; Akther, Syeda Sharjina; Yoon, Na Young; Berry, Katherine A.; Nemcek, Carmen; Fall, Anna-Maria; Roberts, Greg – Learning Disabilities Research & Practice, 2023
This study examined the influence of addition and subtraction practice embedded within a word-problem intervention for Grade 3 students experiencing word-problem difficulty. Students (N = 448) were randomly assigned to one of two variants of a word-problem intervention or a business-as-usual comparison condition. Within the word-problem…

Pernille Bødtker Sunde; Bert De Smedt; Lieven Verschaffel; Peter Sunde – European Journal of Psychology of Education, 2024
Early detection of and relevant information on children's mathematical difficulties is important to initiate targeted teaching and intervention. This study investigated the extent to which strategy use in single-digit addition provides additional predictive information about 61 grade one children's (6-year-old) mathematical achievement 3 years…

Margaret M. Flores; Vanessa M. Hinton; Kelly B. Schweck – Learning Disability Quarterly, 2024
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the concrete-representational-abstract--integrated (CRA-I) sequence on students with learning disabilities' performance when learning fraction and decimal concepts. Three elementary-level students in Grades 4 and 6 participated in a single-case multiple probe across behaviors study. The…

Cecilia Björkhammer; Joakim Samuelsson; Ulf Träff; Rickard Östergren – Scandinavian Journal of Educational Research, 2024
The intention of the study was to examine the effects of a fraction intervention in a whole-class environment. The intervention aimed to enhance students' conceptual fraction knowledge, with a major focus on fraction magnitude understanding. This study included 120 fifth-grade students in standard classroom settings. Utilizing a cluster randomized…

Xie, Shengying; Cai, Jinfa – ZDM: Mathematics Education, 2022
In this study we aimed to inquire into the impact of the use of early arithmetic strategies by a group of fifth-grade students, on their solving of equations involving two representations of unknowns. Pre- and post-tests consisting of equation-solving items involving two representations of unknowns (number sentences containing empty 'brackets', as…

Bustamante, Andres S.; Begolli, Kreshnik Nasi; Alvarez-Vargas, Daniela; Bailey, Drew H.; Richland, Lindsey Engle – Journal of Educational Psychology, 2022
This study tested a novel approach to capitalizing on the benefits of play for informal math learning. Two experiments evaluated a platform called "Fraction Ball," that provides an embodied, playful, and physically active learning experience by modifying the lines on a basketball court to support rational number learning. In the Pilot…

Hilz, Anna; Aldrup, Karen – AERA Online Paper Repository, 2023
Studies on math learning programs are lacking that consider a wide set of outcome variables, and students' practice behavior. Therefore, we investigated whether an adaptive arithmetic learning program fosters students' math performance (addition and subtraction), math self-concept, and a reduction of math anxiety, and how practice behavior…

Chimoni, Maria; Pitta-Pantazi, Demetra; Christou, Constantinos – Journal for the Study of Education and Development, 2021
In this paper, we discuss the theoretical foundation and implementation of two alternative instructional courses that aimed to support the development of elementary school students' early algebraic thinking. Both courses approached three basic algebra content strands: generalized arithmetic, functional thinking and modelling languages. The courses…

Daiga, Michael; Driskell, Shannon – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2021
This article shares two activities geared toward students in middle school that engage students in analyzing measures of center, specifically the arithmetic mean, and using transnumerative thinking with the ultimate goal of improving students' statistical literacy. Both activities support the Common Core standard, 6.SP.B.5 "Summarize and…

González-Forte, Juan Manuel; Fernández, Ceneida; Van Hoof, Jo; Van Dooren, Wim – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2022
Students often show difficulties in understanding rational numbers. Often, these are related to the natural number bias, that is, the tendency to apply the properties of natural numbers to rational number tasks. Although this phenomenon has received a lot of research interest over the last two decades, research on the existence of qualitatively…
