Fraivillig, Judith L.; Murphy, Lauren A.; Fuson, Karen C.
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v30 n2 p148-70 Mar 1999

Advancing Children's Thinking (ACT) is synthesized from an in-depth analysis of observed and reported data from one skillful first-grade teacher's use of the "Everyday Mathematics" curriculum. Indicates that teachers often support, but less often elicit or extend, children's mathematical thinking. Contains 31 references. (Author/ASK)
