Excerpt from Walsh-Suzzallo Arithmetics, Vol. 7: By Grades In the upper grammar grades, the child comes to feel at ease in performing the fundamental processes, only to find their applications more complex than ever. Hence the pressing responsibility of the grammar grades is to teach the children to think. They must be taught to understand the important social institutions With which arithmetical processes are associated, for, without this comprehension, they cannot reason out the successive steps to be taken in solving practical problems. Hence a large part of this text is devoted to the simple social and economic applications of mathematics. Since the dominant problem in these higher grades is different from that of the lower years, it is necessary that the teacher modify the traditional spirit of mathematical teaching. The work should be formal only in the slight est degree. It would contribute greatly to effective in struction if the teacher would constantly remember that economic, as contrasted with formal, arithmetic deals chiefly With applications, and these should be kept vital to the children taught. While many arithmetical proc esses are very important to all pupils the whole country over, their applications are not. Each process has many varied uses. Every child may need to know every funda mental operation, but not every application of the same. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
