Synopsis
The New England Primer was the first textbook ever printed in America and was used to teach reading and Bible lessons in our schools until the twentieth century. In fact, many of the Founding Fathers and their children learned to read from The New England Primer.
— Metrovoice
The New England Primer was the first reading primer designed for the American Colonies. It became the most successful educational textbook published in 18th century America and it became the foundation of most schooling before the 1790s.
Many of its selections were drawn from the King James Bible and others were original. It embodied the dominant Puritan attitude and worldview of the day. Among the topics discussed are respect to parental figures, sin, and salvation.

The Primer was the Puritans answer to the Catholic unification of alphabet and creed found in the Enschedé Abecedarium and the enormously popular Book of Hours.The New England Primer is a fascinating record not only of Puritan perceptions of educational and religious philosophy, but also of the changes in New England religion over time. Each edition updated aspects of the primer, most noticeably the treatment of the monarchy and the illustrated alphabet.-Reed College______________________________________CONTENTS OF THE 1777 EditionA Divine Song of Praise to GOD, for a Child,The young INFANT'S or CHILD'S morning Prayer.The INFANT'S or young CHILD'S Evening Prayer.AlphabetA Lesson for Children.The Infant's Grace before and after Meat.An Alphabet of Lessons for Youth.The LORD's Prayer.The CREED.Dr. WATTS'S Cradle Hymn.VERSES for Children.Another.Another.Another.Another.Another.Duty to God and our neighbour.Our Saviour's Golden Rule.The Sum of the Ten Commandments.Advice to Youth.
