Synopsis

A practical guide for building early number sense in the first two grades.

This edition presents a complete, grade-by-grade plan that combines traditional methods with progressive, hands-on learning.

The book is designed as a manual for teachers. It emphasizes oral work, concrete materials, and the gradual introduction of symbols and operations. Lessons progress from the first to the fourth year, with each grade split into half-year sections and clear criteria for advancement.
  • Learn how to structure lessons that begin with concrete counting and move toward written work.
  • Discover type lessons, approved methods, and seat-work ideas that develop number concepts from 1 to 20 in the first grade.
  • See how to mix drill, discussion, and practical problems to build fluency and understanding.
  • Understand the book’s approach to balancing the “why” with the “how” of arithmetic, so concepts connect to everyday life.
Ideal for teachers, homeschooling parents, and curriculum planners who want a time-tested framework for early arithmetic.
