Felmer, Patricio, Ed.; Liljedahl, Peter, Ed.; Koichu, Boris, Ed. – Research in Mathematics Education, 2019
Recent research in problem solving has shifted its focus to actual classroom implementation and what is really going on during problem solving when it is used regularly in classroom. This book seeks to stay on top of that trend by approaching diverse aspects of current problem solving research, covering three broad themes. Firstly, it explores the…

Horak, Willis; Horak, Virginia – Instructor, 1983
Geometry should be a frequent and familiar part of the elementary school mathematics curriculum. Exercises to help children master basic terminology and visualize shapes and geometric relationships are described. They range from a "shape bag," which teaches simple identification of figures, to more complex activities involving polyominoes and…
