Synopsis

This book makes reasoning accessible by introducing geometric principles using familiar objects and engaging exercises that guide children to make their own observations and discoveries. Step-by-step instructions and illustrations scaffold complex geometric concepts into smaller, easier-to-understand ideas. The author has selected statements of important facts and principles that are demonstrable from the standpoint of a child and presented them in various ways to allow children to thoroughly grasp difficult ideas. The book emphasizes the numerical relations of geometric forms as a means of understanding shape and form. It also introduces algebraic equations in their simplest forms as a convenient instrument for determining values in connection with geometric forms. By focusing on accessible examples and familiar objects, this book demystifies geometry and empowers young learners to understand and apply geometric concepts.
