The basic premise of this report is that in addition to knowledge of subject matter and psychological principles, teachers should have the ability to think about the subject natter and to perform the logical operations used in manipulating it. The basic objects of mathematics instruction are concepts and principles, and, therefore, the focus of this report is the definition of moves and strategies in operating on and teaching these. The *concept of a concept * is discussed, and a taxonomy of concepts defined. Eight types of connotative moves and six types of denotative moves are defined and exemplified. Strategies (sequences of moves) for teaching concepts are then discussed. The nature and importance of principles in mathematics are discus...
