The development of mathematical skills for the primary cycle is a triple challenge in the current context of education in Romania. The first of the challenges is given by the fact that education has become an activity still unstructured with political movements and decisions, implicitly with the changes that have taken place in the ministerial apparatus. The second challenge is given by the methodological changes and of the school curriculum, which comes as a completion of the first challenge, and the third challenge is given by the weight of the teachers in making mathematics an attractive discipline. In this sense, the challenge for us is to show that this triple barrier can be overcome. As such, in the present study, a mixed-method of presenting the mathematical contents in the classroom is proposed, especially for the preparatory group, class I and II, through the prism of the instruments offered by the Romanian thematic philately. The results of the study are presented in the form of worksheets, of which we present only excerpts to summarize the possibilities arising from the association of philately with notions of mathematics training for the primary cycle.
