Présentation de l'éditeur

Object and Scope. The office of this book is to discuss means of assisting pupils six years of age to pass in eight years from complete ignorance of mathematics to the knowledge and efficiency outlined in the course of study. The keynote is, Every step in response to a need and as a means to an end. The race has advanced to its present stage and will advance to other stages in response to needs. The satisfaction of one need gives rise to others, their satisfaction to still others, and so on. Pupils must follow the same path but must accomplish in a few years what the race has accomplished in many centuries. 2. The Plan. The subject matter of mathematics is mental products number and the operations upon number do not exist ready formed in nature. Assuming that the pupil, like the race, should be an inventor, we shall discuss the principal means of helping him to create subject matter for himself, and shall apply these means to the divisions of arithmetic.
