Excerpt from Hamilton's Essentials of Arithmetic: Middle Grades
The pupil's self-activity is utilized in constructive work. His initiative is exercised by leading him to discover many arithmetical truths for himself. The importance of the cor rect interpretation of problems and of the choice of the best methods for their solution is emphasized. The Problems Without Numbers tend to develop the power of generaliza tion.
This book for Middle Grades covers the work that is usually taught in the fifth and sixth years, each chapter rep resenting one half year's work.
By the end of the sixth year, this book aims to give the pupils a knowledge of all the arithmetical principles that are essential for success in the ordinary affairs of life.
The effort to follow prevailing prices has been limited by their rapid fluctuations and by their variation in different parts of the country. Teachers should encourage pupils occasionally to substitute current local prices, thereby vary ing the problems in the book.
