ABSTRACT
This article is about the systematization and representation young children spontaneously use when they are working on a combinatorial task. In this article, documentations from 123 children working on the same task are analysed. The question asked is if there are any connections between the systematizations and representations used in the documentations and how the children solve the task. The results indicate that there are some connections between systematization and representations and that both prepossess children's solutions. In this paper, we provide some possible reasons; however, we also state that more studies are needed to give deeper insights on these issues.
