The teacher’s mathematical ability is one of the factors that influence the achievement of students’ mathematical abilities. In Indonesia, almost all research related to PISA, the subject of research was a student. It is still rare that the subject of research was a teacher. How is the math literacy ability of the teachers? This question will be answered by researchers in this study, especially in the field of space and shape. The subjects were seven Mathematics teachers who taught in junior high schools from seven different schools in Yogyakarta and surrounding areas. In the process of this research, the researcher makes a test adapted from PISA questions. There were 13 questions in the test consisting of three questions in the quantity field, three questions in the uncertainty field, three questions in the field of change and relationship, and four questions in the field of space and shape. In this paper, we will present our result just for the Space and Shape part. The study found that (1) 7 teachers could achieve level 4 for problem 1a, (2) 6 teachers could achieve level 5 for problem 1b, (3) 2 teachers could achieve level 5 for problem 2, (4) 1 teacher could achieve level 5 and 6 for problem 3, and (4) 6 teachers could achieve level 6 for problem 4.
