This paper is devoted to those readers who are professionally
engaged in
dealing with the questions of teaching and learning elementary school
geometry. It
consists of three lessons from a postgraduate course taught by this author at
the Teacher's Training Faculty, University of Belgrade.
Appearance of things in the surrounding world changes but some stable
characteristic
properties of their shapes stay unchanged. J. Piaget classifies these
properties as
topological projective and Euclidean and the spontaneous development of a
child follows
that order of ideas. It is a normal interest of a specialist in education to
know how these
ideas are mathematically established without wading through the books on these
subjects
which are often unapproachable to him or her. The aim of this paper is to make
a direct
approach to mathematical clarification of these ideas, based only on the
reader's
knowledge of the secondary school mathematics.
