Abstract

In the course of the last few years there has been an extensive reorganization of the course of study in mathematics in grades seven, eight, and nine. One phase of this reorganization movement deals with the incorporation of much geometric material. A large amount of simple construction and drawing is being done with the ruler, compasses, and protractor. Through the application of both arithmetic and algebra in the field of geometry the child is becoming familiar with the names and shapes of a large number of plane and solid figures. In addition, many of the simpler notions of geometry are being experimentally obtained by the pupils in these grades.
