By the same Author. Fourth Edition. Crown 8vo, 4s. 6d. ELEMENTARY ARITHMETIC AND HOW TO TEACH IT. Scotsman." A great many rudimentary treatises on arithmetic have been published of late years, but we do not remember one which for clearness, completeness, or real practical assistance to the schoolmaster, can be compared to this. Mr. Ricks begins at the beginning, with a series of lessons for infants' schools, and has a separate portion for each class up to advanced scholars. Thus his book can be used in all the departments of a school at the same time, and if steadily worked through it cannot fail to give any pupil of average intellect a thorough acquaintance with Arithmetic." School Board Chronicle.-" We predict that this will become a standard book." Teacher.-"A work with which very few other arithmetics are worthy of being compared." Educational News.-"More than realises expectation." Nonconformist.-"We are not aware of any book so good as this for the special purpose for which it has been written." National Schoolmaster.-" Mr. Ricks has succeeded excellently in his attempt. As far as our recommendation carries weight our readers may depend upon it that this is a really valuable, and to them distinctly useful book." |
