Abstract
This study is included in the complex problems about the teaching and the learning of the concept of mathematical infinity pointing out the beliefs, the intuitive acceptances and the mental processes of primary school teachers. In particular the teachers’ misconceptions can be considered like the starting of didactical obstacles that, with epistemological ones frequently pointed out in the international literature, create difficulties in the learning of this concept by secondary high school students. Moreover, such difficult didactical obstacles are hard to eliminate, unless one intervenes on primary school teachers’ preparation in this specific field.
