The Arithmetic Reader, for Second Grade Pupils (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Arithmetic Reader, for Second Grade Pupils

It is believed that there is a place in our courses of study for a book, or a series of books, by which the pupil may be taught to read arithmetical problems and gradu ally led into the correct use of mathematical terms. It is this conviction that has given birth to the arithmetic reader. No pictures appear upon its pages. These would in part defeat the purpose of the book which is to aid the pupil in getting thought from printed words. It is expected that the facts of number appearing upon any page will be thoroughly taught by means of objects, before the pupil is asked to read the page.

Part I. Suggests the order and amount of number work that should be taught orally in the First Grade; but the book should not be put into the hands of the pupil until he is able to read well in a second reader.
