In this context, Selden and Selden (1995) aver that students’ early mathematical years are extremely important because it is in these years that students’ attitudes begin to form. They believe that right from the early elementary stages children should be encouraged to reason through their mathematical activities. According to them, “Both weak validation skills and viewing proofs as ritualistic, and unrelated to common sense reasoning, may be partially traceable to the absence of arguments, especially student-produced arguments, in school mathematics” (p. 141, emphasis mine). But, to inculcate a culture where students learn to reason through all their activities, teachers must appreciate the importance of such reasoning.
