Add to ORKGThis paper reports on the findings of an on going research study which investigates the problems that a class of Grade 6 students experience in the process of learning about the structural aspects of numerical expressions. The aim of this study is to see to what extent a focus on the structural properties of numerical expressions can assist students ' handling of algebraic structures of numerical expressions. Data collected thus far shows that students are not always able to transfer their structural knowledge of numerical expressions to new situations. This was especially evident in situations that involved the solving of an equation or judging the equivalence of expressions without doing a calculation. The findings support the need t...
