Kindergarten and primary school are two different educational institutions in nature, children from Kindergarten intergrades to primary school, their learning environments, objectives, contents and methods have undergone fundamental changes and these changes will have important effect to the study of successor and make further difficulty very easily. And mathematics is a highly thorough general and abstract logical, coherent study for its strong and systematic in teaching "technology" small change, it is easy to learn about babies have a negative impact on the mathematics, so the question of kindergarten and primary school mathematic teaching connection was very important.In this study, by taking the research objects as some of the kindergarteners and teachers of mathematics from the first grade in Guilin, we studied the current situation of mathematics teaching transition between a kindergarten A and a first grade class in primary school through questionnaires, practical observation and interviews. The study on mathematics teaching transition between the big kindergarten class and the first grade class are spread. How to effectively do a better math teaching transition in the two phases of kindergartens and primary schools is the main topic of this study.The research tells that there are some good aspects of mathematics teaching transition between kindergartens and primary schools present, while much more are problems that in dire need of being improved. The problems lie in the following areas: (1) the primary school teachers'taking no account of such problems; (2) entrance examination oriented teaching, and emphasis on acquiring knowledge too much; (3) teaching content repeated too much, but lack of continuity; (4) neglecting children's learning psychology, and have profit-oriented tendencies; (5) the kindergarteners'unclear of the teaching difference between the two institutions.The author has taken a deep analysis on the causes of the problems in mathematics teaching transition between kindergartens and primary schools. The problems are lying in the following areas, i.e., the understanding of education objective in kindergartens'mathematics teaching; the concept on mathematics teaching of the kindergarteners; the understanding of children's learning psychology and the grasp of the difference between the two institutions. Based on the areas above, a thinking of mathematics teaching transition in primary schools is extended, the suggestion on such teaching transition are as follows: In primary schools, more consider about the learn continuity of students, know about the studying characteristics in the nursery and the experiences of the new entry and a teaching building awareness. About kindergartens aspects, grasp the needs of children's mathematics learning, give the explicit goal of mathematics education in kindergartens; improve the quality of kindergarteners, enhance the learning and training of kindergarteners; improve the communication between schools and families, unify the concept of mathematics teaching for kids; enhance the communication between kindergartens and primary schools, reduce the difference between the two kinds of teaching; get to know about children's psychology in learning, make a rational design on teaching in the transition period.
