Abstract
Introduction: The notion of number sense has been consolidated in the research literature on mathematics education and, since the publication of the LOMLOE, it is also a term of daily use among teachers.
Number sence is described in various ways, but it is always expressed in terms of capabilities that people manifest when they have developed it.
Method: In this paper, through the reading and analysis of the content of reference research on number sense, we establish a list of components of number sense.
Results: Moreover, we complement the list with the description of the relationships that can be established between these components
Conclusions: and with a possible hierarchical structure of development of capabilities specific to each component. This is an initial study, which will allow us to analyze how the relationships between the components of number sense change when we work with different number systems.
