Abstract | Little is known about how Australian teachers interpret, enact and assess reasoning. This paper reports on primary teachers' perceptions of reasoning prior to observation and subsequent trialling of demonstration lessons in a primary school. The findings indicate that while some teachers were able to articulate what reasoning means, others were unsure. It is argued that to facilitate curricular change and reform, teachers need support in understanding mathematical reasoning and how they can further develop this proficiency in their primary classrooms.
