Abstract
SOME four hundred pages of this book are given to the elementary parts of mathematics, from the first four rules of arithmetic up to the standard of a school certificate. The treatment is varied, but often takes the form of outlined specimen lessons; it is full of useful hints about the details of teaching, and is sure to be welcomed by a large body of teachers.
Craftsmanship in the Teaching of Elementary Mathematics.
