DescriptionIn the first clip in a series of nine from the fourth of seven interviews in which 8th grader Stephanie explores Early Algebraic Ideas about Binomial Expansion, Stephanie explains the conclusions that she has justified in earlier interviews. In response to the researcher, Carolyn Maher, Stephanie firsts writes out the expanded form of (a+b) squared. She then explains that she had used geometric drawings to illustrate the meaning of the square with side a, first by substituting the value 3 for a and drawing a 3 by 3 array within a square and then representing a square with side (a+b) by sectioning her drawing into four parts.
The problem as presented to Stephanie:
Explain your conclusions about the square of the quantity (a+b).
