Abstract
- This paper intends to describe a phenomenon observed when children aged 6 and 7 years old, who had not yet received formal instruction about division, tried to solve a problem of distribution by means of drawings. The phenomenon called "frames of meaning" attempts to explain why some children were successful in solving problems and others were not. We illustrate this hypothesis empirically through a case study. This hypothesis is a powerful theoretical and methodological tool for understanding the underlying mathematical thinking and arithmetic problem-solving abilities of children this age. However, it is necessary to continue to expand our analysis and the application of this framework. This would lead to reconsider conventional educational and evaluative practices. In this article we try to point the way by which these changes could be made. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
