Sinopsis

Excerpt from Everyday Arithmetic, Vol. 1

The work is arranged so that the pupils will acquire skill in com puting, but in approaching the formal aspects of the work, the book makes an important departure from the textbooks of the past. The problems and exercises are grouped by situations taken from actual experience, so that a child meets number as vitally related to his home and school interests. Each new process is taught in connec tion with a concrete situation requiring its use. Each group of prob lems is centered about a familiar activity.

The advantages of this grouping are threefold: It gives a child insight into the purpose of number work and wins his hearty co operation; it breaks down the artificial barrier between the arith metic that is taught in the schoolroom and that which a child meets in his outside experience, so that the two become interwoven and both are enriched; further, it gives a child that which is of prime importance, power to use the number processes under conditions similar to those that confront him in life.
