- Title
Grounded theory of productive practices for algebraic thinking.

- Abstract
In response to students’ difficulties with algebra, many have advocated for algebraic thinking in elementary schools as a route to algebra. However, many studies show students’ difficulties with algebraic thinking and teachers’ challenges with creating a context that supports reasoning. This article presents a constructivist-grounded theory of interdependent practices that supports algebraic thinking based on a longitudinal study. The theory emerged from data collected from an after-school mathematical reasoning project with six elementary schools.
