You may be surprised to learn that most first graders can solve for x in such problems as 2x + 1 = 21. I know so because they do it in my classroom daily, just not in the abstract form of x's and y's. Even though primary-grade students may lack the formal level of thinking required to “efficiently” solve equations, algebraic reasoning is still possible when approached in less sterile and more practical ways. This article shares teaching experiences that show just that outcome: when an equation is redesigned into a problemsolving story or a logic puzzle or is in some other way wrapped in meaning, even six-yearolds know enough mathematics to solve it.
