Ok, I went to "Math Practices". This is what it says:

Mathematical Practices
1)Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
2)Reason abstractly and quantitatively.
3)Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.
4)Model with mathematics.
5)Use appropriate tools strategically.
6)Attend to precision.
7)Look for and make use of structure.
8)Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Which parts of this illustrate explaining in detail in abstract terms...[/quote]

2, 3, and 8.   
Just ask my eight year old.[/quote]

2)Priya found two rocks. Then she found three more rocks. Write an equation for how many rocks she has now. Answer: 2+3=5.

3)a)If you had two cookies, and then you ate one, which operation should you use to describe this? Answer: Subtraction. 
b)Why not addition? Because you're not adding, you're taking away.

8)What comes next in the pattern? asdfasdfasd_

Do you think that your eight-year-old would be able to solve these problems?

As the PP said, no Wittgenstein hat required here.[/quote]
