The book is designed for children from 6 to 8 years old, but it might be of interest both to five-year olds and to older primary-school pupils.It can be used in any of the following ways: family reading, group reading in Infants schools, and recreational reading in the lower Junior schools.This is no study-book. It does not provide a systematic and complete introduction to geometry. Its aim is to acquaint children in an exciting and stimulating way with some of the principal concepts of geometry, to teach them how to find bearings in simple geometrical situations and to discern geometrical patterns in the world around them.Despite its "easiness", the book contains some fundamental scientific facts. Therefore, using the book calls for active involvement on the part of adults.
Since the book contains many new ideas and facts, it should be read step by step and the "dosage" should be reasonably graded. Granted the reading "doses" are substantially dependent on the individual ability of a child, but according to our experience a daily session should not be longer than 30-40 minutes (especially with group reading).Each term for a new concept, when it first appears in the text, is printed in red. It is a good practice to begin each session with recapitulation: recall the previous events and the definitions of the earlier concepts.
The tasks and the worksheets are important. They will make for a deeper understanding of the mathematical contents of the book and development of some practical skills with geometrical figures. Children should not overlook these questions and exercises.Some of the exercises are far more difficult than those inserted into the body of the text. Some even introduce new concepts. It is up to the instructor to decide whether or not the student can handle them and they should not insist on carrying out the exercises in strict succession.Your sessions will require coloured pencils, paper, a ruler, a pair of scissors, a pair of compasses, a set-square, sticks, and some Plasticine. All these should be prepared beforehand and used as required.
