no
I disagree.
Third graders get a start on algebra with problems like this:
3 times some number is 6. What is "some number?"
3x = 6
x = 2
Yes, 3rd graders do begin algebra. What goes in the missing blank.
3 + blank = 10. In future grades the students will learn that the blank will actually turn into x or y.
they don't really learn algebra they just have a box where a middle or high school student would have a variable
