Abstract: The study presented in this research report aims to compare and contrast the pedagogical approaches in early years mathematics. We present transcript data from a baseline and end lesson from one teacher as part of a broader study to introduce dialogic pedagogy and collaborative group work. The pedagogical approaches are analysed in relation to Bakhtin's notions of authoritative and internally persuasive discourses and on the teachers and students' use of language. We highlight how language can balance authoritative and persuasive discourses and influence the way students collaborate and assimilate the mathematics.
