Resumen

I analyse low and high achieving children’s competences regarding pattern and structure at the beginning of formal schooling comparatively. The aim is to evaluate the range of school starters’ early structure sense. The results suggest overall high pre-instructional competences which, however, differ strongly between the mathematical high and low achievers. I name cognitive milestones for the development of a sound early structure sense.

Sentido estructural temprano de estudiantes al inicio de su escolarización

Analizo comparativamente las competencias relacionadas con patrones y estructura al comienzo de la escolaridad formal en escolares con bajo y alto rendimiento académico. El objetivo es evaluar la gama de sentido estructural de niños que se inician en la escuela. Los resultados sugieren en general altas competencias pre-instruccionales las cuales, no obstante, difieren considerablemente entre los escolares de bajo y alto rendimiento académico. Identifico hitos cognitivos para el desarrollo de un sentido estructural sólido.
