Abstract
Today the arithmetic program in the elementary grades is being reevaluated. New ideas and approaches are being proposed, discussed, and tested. One of these ideas, the teaching of geometry in the elementary school, is being introduced as early as kindergarten. One of the most extensive and well-known programs in geometry for the primary grades has been developed by Patrick Suppes and Newton Hawley at Stanford University. Their program is more formalized than the experiences some children have in their present classrooms. The presentation of geometry differs from one classroom or school system to another. Some teachers find it very essential; others are still questioning its value.
