Resumen
La agenda investigadora del early algebra tiene entre sus horizontes ampliar los estudios sobre generalización matemática y aritmética generalizada. Tras aplicar un experimento de enseñanza, evidenciamos cómo los estudiantes chilenos de 9-10 años justifican relaciones matemáticas generales sobre números pares, impares e igualdades numéricas en un contexto que fomenta la comunicación y debate de ideas matemáticas. Este trabajo aporta una caracterización novedosa para las justificaciones de generalizaciones en función del pensamiento algebraico evidenciado y las representaciones empleadas. Nuestros resultados muestran una gran riqueza en la construcción de argumentos de enfoque relacional que se sofistican a medida que avanza la instrucción.
