Özet

Problem Statement: Gaining reasoning skills in early years affects the formal proving skills in the following years, thus it is quite significant. The acquiring of this skill is only possible with the approaches that the teachers used in the process. At this point, the problem to be researched in terms of making proofs is seen in how middle school students prove a mathematical expression; what kinds of reasoning and proof types they use in this process; how the teachers of these students prove the same expression; and how they reflect it to their instruction.
