Syftet med studien var att belysa två förskollärares syn på matematik och matematikundervisning, deras syn på barn och matematik samt deras syn på interaktionen mellan förskollärare, barn och matematiskt material. I detta syfte ingick det att studera förskollärarnas syn utifrån ett genusperspektiv. För att genomföra undersökningen gjordes en kvalitativ fallstudie där en intervjustudie som baseras på observationsfall användes som metod. Tre fall valdes ut, en delad i två block som visar på händelser som upprepar sig i våra observationer och som användes i intervjuerna med de två förskollärarna. Resultatet visar på att de två förskollärarna är medvetna om vikten av att få in matematik och matematikundervisning redan i förskolan, men att de ibland missar det.
