摘要：
This paper examines the effect of the use of dynamic geometry environments on children's thinking about symmetry. Using a pair of black box tasks, kindergarten children were able to develop an understanding of symmetry that showed awareness of the properties of reflectional symmetry through the behaviour of dynamic images.
