Abstract

In the article, the authors discuss the study by mathematicians and early years (EY) teachers to find ways to extend the geometrical thinking and engage with the mathematical curiosities of EYs. Other topics are the geometrical concepts that attracted the interests of EYs like circles, and lessons like the differences of spiral and concentric circles.
