Beyond computation in mathematics: An instructional study with third-grade bilingual Mexican American students

Research in mathematics education has informed educators about non bilingual mainstream students' problem solutions to different types of arithmetic word problems, the strategies they use, the effect of language on their understanding of word problems, and the types of errors they make. In contrast, only a few studies have examined the mathematical thinking (e.g., in the solution of arithmetic word problems) of elementary school-age bilingual Hispanic children.
