Abstract: This study focuses on exploring the developmental characteristics of 72 5-7 year-old children's strategy selection through the strategies children use to solve simple addition problems.It indicates that with increase of age,the proportion of retrieval strategy children used increased and it gradually became the major one while that of counting strategy decreased.Only few children were found to use rounding strategy,decomposition strategy and strategy of rowing numbers in mind.On the whole,5-7 year-old children did not show the tendency of using many kinds of strategies.Retrieval strategy and min strategy are the better ways for them to solve simple addition problems.

Key words: children, addition strategy, developmental characteristics
