[Maths-Education] Re: Early algebra references

[Alison Price]

I am doing some work on early sorting, matching, categorisation leading into
handling data and graphing etc..
I am finding it difficult to find much research on the early stages of this
- lots of babies' understanding of categorisation but little at the 3-6 age
group that is not either anecdotal or from a theoretical mathematical
perspective (e.g. set theory) but not clearly related to an understanding of
how children develop these ideas.
What am I missing?
