Abstract | The Purposeful Algebraic Activity project aims to explore the potential of spreadsheets in the introduction to algebra and algebraic thinking. We discuss two sub-themes within the project: tracing the development of pupils' construction of meaning for variable from arithmetic-based activity, through use of spreadsheets, and into formal algebra, and tracing the ways in which children construct utilities for algebraic activity. Our analysis of pupils' activity suggests that tasks which offer opportunities to construct different utilities may also be associated with the construction of different meanings for variable.
