| Research Abstract |
The purpose of the present research was to examine how the uses and internalization of cognitive tools are related with the development of quantity concepts and mathematical thinking. The research questions were twofold : 1.do children from 3 to 6 years understand that the unit of amounts should be the same? 2.how are the uses and internalization of cognitive tools related with the development of the unit concept and mathematical thinking? The main findings obtained were as follows : 1.Many 3-year-olds divided an amount into many parts and understand the amount in terms of number knowledge. 2.Children from 4 years of ages paid attention to a unit of amount, but made incorrect judgment for amounts under a misleading condition. 3.Children from 5 and half years of ages used superimposition spontaneously and internalized it, and made correct judgment for amounts even under a misleading condition.
