Abstract
This study explored teaching moves used by preservice teachers during one-on-one problemsolving interviews with children. Teaching moves used fell into six categories: (a) exploring
details of children’s strategies, (b) investigating multiple strategies and representations, (c)
ensuring comprehension of the problem, (d) telling information, (e) re-voicing children’s
language, and (f) asking for a final answer. The preservice teachers’ rationales for making
teaching moves were also examined through stimulated recall interviews. Rationales were either
geared to support children’s understandings or to support the preservice teachers’
understandings. Recommendations are made for teacher educators.
