Neste artigo, analisa-se a obra do ponto de vista da apresentação dos conhecimentos matemáticos, focalizando-se especialmente as lições de geometria. Destacam-se cinco aspectos da abordagem adotada: a presença da geometria plana antes da espacial, os diversos materiais essenciais ao ensino da geometria, a associação do desenho ao ensino, a sequenciação dos conteúdos geométricos e a ligação ao prazer e à curiosidade da criança. Tecem-se, ainda, considerações acerca da utilização e da circulação do manual no que se refere ao ensino da geometria na escola primária brasileira.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Primary object lessons, by Norman Allison Calkins, translated by Rui Barbosa, a book that was widely disseminated in Brazil during the final years of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, presents object teaching as a general method to be used in every subject or primary school. This article analyses Calkins’ book according to its presentation of mathematical content, focusing particularly on geometry lessons. It also discusses five features of the approach adopted by Calkins: the presentation of plane geometry before geometry in space, the several materials necessary to the teaching of geometry, the drawing lessons associated with the lessons on shape, the sequence of presentation of the contents and the relations between geometry teaching and children’s pleasure and curiosity. Comments about the utilization and circulation of Calkins’ manual in geometry teaching in Brazil are also provided.]]></p></abstract>
