Overview

Excerpt from Junior High School Mathematics, Vol. 1 A proper curriculum for junior high schools and six-year high schools demands, in the Opinion of many teachers, a course in mathematics which introduces concrete, intuitional geometry and the Simple uses of algebra in the lower classes. This book is intended to meet such a demand for the lowest class. Arithmetic furnishes the material for the first half of the book. The second half of the book is devoted to intuitional and constructive geometry, a subject which is more concrete than algebra and which admits of more simple illustration. Both arithmetic and geometry are arranged' with respect to large topics, the intention being to avoid the lack of system which so often deprives the student of that feeling of mastery which is his right and his privilege. These large topics are set forth clearly in the table of contents. In this book there is gradually introduced the algebraic formula, so that the student is aware of the value of algebra as a working tool before he proceeds to the study of Book II. The text is so arranged that with entire convenience to the teacher and student the work in arithmetic may be taken parallel with the work in geometry, or the work in geometry may precede the work in arithmetic.
