ab: Summary: In this paper we describe an experiment in which we want to
    explore, at different levels of analysis, the relationship between
    language and developmental processes of logical tools through
    “linguistic-manipulative" activities in primary school classrooms.
    Social and cultural developmental psychology and mathematical logic act
    as framework for the research. The teaching experiment regards the
    assertive aspects of the language and it is based on the construction
    of “axiomatic systems" and “deductive chains". The children worked
    in cooperative groups and they were interviewed by means of successive
    interviews based on the explicitation interview method. By a
    qualitative analysis of the activities and of the interviews we find
    out some Main Topics and we can observe how the children processed the
    activities.
