This geometry book is written foremost for future and current middle
school teachers, but is also designed for elementary and high school
teachers. The book consists of ten seminars covering in a rigorous way
the fundamental topics in school geometry, including all of the
significant topics in high school geometry. The seminars are crafted
to clarify and enhance understanding of the subject. Concepts in plane
and solid geometry are carefully explained, and activities that
teachers can use in their classrooms are emphasized. The book draws on
the pictorial nature of geometry since that is what attracts students
at every level to the subject. The book should give teachers a firm
foundation on which to base their instruction in the elementary and
middle grades. In addition, it should help teachers give their
students a solid basis for the geometry that they will study in high
school. The book is also intended to be a source for problems in
geometry for enrichment programs such as Math Circles and Young
Scholars. In the interest of fostering a greater awareness and
appreciation of mathematics and its connections to other disciplines
and everyday life, MSRI and the AMS are publishing books in the
Mathematical Circles Library series as a service to young people,
their parents and teachers, and the mathematics profession.
