• Resumen

  • Algebraic reasoning should be incorporated throughout the K-grade 12 curriculum. The How Much Do the Tiles Cost? problem is a high-level task that fosters algebraic reasoning and problem solving, is accessible to students across the elementary school grades, and can be solved in multiple ways. Rachael Quebec implemented the problem in her first-grade class at Joseph Estabrook Elementary School in Lexington, Massachusetts, providing a window into students' algebraic reasoning in the early elementary grades.
