| Description | Geometric shapes are one of the first subjects in mathematics education during the early stage of elementary school. Even before entering formal schooling, children gain some basic information about geometric shapes through their everyday experiences. Children form conceptions about the concepts on the base of their experiences. Some of these early conceptions about geometric shapes might be incorrect, which might negatively impact children’s further understanding of geometric shapes. In this study, we try to look at how the conceptions of the concept triangle are developed during elementary and lower secondary school. |
