The article presents information related to the use of elementary mathematics in astronomy. It is important to include a study of the more obvious phenomena of the sky in elementary geographical work. A pupil can be impressed with the earth's form and movements by directing his attention to the changes on the sky which are due to these facts. The observation of the changes on the sky will give him a first-hand familiarity with what actually takes place and how it takes place. Also, the pupil should be encouraged to look for the reason for the observed occurrence in his notes. The article also discusses the outline which will acquaint elementary and secondary teachers with the part of the sky needed to study the planetary and lunar movements. It will also help in explaining questions which arise early in the geography. These questions are related to the form, rotation and revolution of the earth, day and night and changes of the seasons. It suggests teachers to write a plan for teaching some subject related to astronomy to the grade to which it suits best.
