Foreword Preface Acknowledgements Introduction Part I. Definition 1. A Perspective on Spatial Sense Permission to Move Freely Compositions and Decompositions of Shapes Symmetry Is Spatial, Not One-Half Keep in Mind 2. The Vocabulary Clues Are in the Words Prefix Power for Polygons and Polyhedra Vocabulary Ancestry Keep in Mind 3. Sorting and Classifying the Symbols of Space Arrangement-Driven Vocabulary Measurement-Driven Vocabulary Mixing the Arrangements and Measurements for Names Keep in Mind Part II. Organization 4. Ribbons, Rolls, and Rulers for the First Dimension Transitioning from Zero Dimension to One Dimension The Rolls of Circumferences and Perimeters Diagonals, Diameters, Radii (Radians), and More Straight PiecesHeights, Altitudes, Apothems, and Legs Keep in Mind 5. Angle Swings and Area Squares in Flatland Angles Are at the Entry Gate to Flatland Areas as Spatial Arrangements Permission to Surround and Rearrange Shapes to Find Areas Keep in Mind 6.
