Excerpt from Words and Numbers: A Lesson-Book for Primary Schools

This manual was originally prepared for the primary schools at one time under the author's supervision, and was used in them for two or three years in manuscript. At the request of teachers who have used it, and of school-officers who have examined it and seen something of the method and the results of its use, it is published.

It is designed for the second year in the primary school, that is, for children who have read a Primer or First Reader; and, with the exception of a Reader, is the only book they will need in school that year. On each page the work for one week is prescribed. This consists of: -

1. A motto or sentiment to be learned and recited. This also serves as the copy for writing-lessons through the week.

2. Four short spelling-lessons. These are not always of short words, but always of words with which the children are familiar, or which they have occasion to use.

3. Tables in addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division.

4. A large number of carefully graded examples for slate-work in the fundamental operations of arithmetic.
