description There are opinions about approaching the proof in mathematics education need to change as providing students to understand the mathematical proof rather than developing formal mathematical proof skills. In this context, proofs without words described as informal proofs can be used in proof teaching. The purpose of this study was to investigate the processes of high school students to do proofs without words. This study was designed as the case study a high school in Turkey. Consequently, activities of proof without words that allow the student to take an active role in the proof process can be presented as an alternative method in proof teaching and the proof without words can be used for teaching students the stages of proof process. It is necessary for teachers to be aware of the proof process stages and guide the students.
