This article is part of the Master's Research of the Graduate Program of the University of Cuiabá and its object of study is the teaching of geometry in the formation of normal teachers of primary education in Barra do Garças. Anchored in the historical-cultural approach, the study was based on the theoretical contributions of Chervel (1990), De Certeau (1982), Julia (2001), Pinto (2014) and Silva; Valente (2014). It aimed to analyze the presence of geometry in the training of normalists who attended the teaching and taught at the Santa Marta Institute in the limited period of the research. The sources were constituted by statements and class diaries with an emphasis on teaching geometry in primary school. The data reveal the presence of geometry, indicating how normalists learned and taught geometric concepts in the classroom, enabling new questions and reflections in the face of the neglect of schools by the discipline.
