Résumé

There is a significant corpus of studies indicating that children even from the age of primary school are capable of providing convenient arguments and that the cultivation of this ability fosters learning significantly. Based on these assumptions, the present paper examines the forms of the arguments that students of primary and middle school use to support their answers. In particular, this study was divided in seven independent activities, where students of a fifth and an eighth grade class had to complete mathematical tasks and support with arguments how they concluded to their answers. We used the simplified Toulmin's argumentation scheme and subsequently, enriched our findings with the argumentation scheme perspective, in order to gain a better understanding of student's reasoning characteristics.
