Course of Study in Arithmetic (Classic Reprint): For the Day Elementary Schools; July, 1918 - Softcover
Synopsis
Foundations for arithmetic instruction in a historic curriculum guide — This 1918 Course of Study in Arithmetic lays out two core aims: to build mastery of basic arithmetic facts and to connect learning to real business and everyday situations. It presents a clear framework for organizing eight years of elementary math work, focusing on essential topics and practical applications.
The document explains how to structure instruction, highlight changes from earlier courses, and balance concrete learning with reasoning. It also covers teaching methods, from teacher demonstrations at the board to guided practice at desks, and from oral work to written work. The guide emphasizes using standard texts and supplements, testing, and self-checking to gauge student progress.
- What students should learn at each grade level, from basic operations to fractions, decimals, and percentages.
- Strategies for presenting problems, including real-life contexts like money, measurements, and daily tasks.
- How to pace instruction, integrate diagnostic tests, and support different learning needs.
- Recommended textbooks and supplementary materials used to support a spiral versus topical approach.
Ideal for teachers, school administrators, and curriculum historians seeking a window into early 20th‑century math education and how standards guided classroom practice and measurement of student progress.
