Publisher's Description of Ray's Primary Arithmetic

This book introduces the four operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, along with counting and other basic skills. It can be used to guide your teaching for about two years - through grades 1 and 2. I t goes farther than the average second grade course, but with Ray's mental system many second graders are able to do this work.

Category Description for Ray's Arithmetic

In America's one-room schoolhouses, Ray's Arithmetic was used alongside the McGuffey Readers. These are exact reproductions of the originals and their small size (4.5" x 7.25") cause one difficulty. They do not easily lay flat, making copying difficult. But the no-nonsense topic coverage provides old-fashioned competence so it is easy to understand why they are recommended by The Well-Trained Mind. Primary Arithmetic covers all four basic functions: addition, subtraction, multiplication, & division in single digits with word and money problems. New Intellectual Arithmetic reviews those four functions with multiple digits adding fractions and introducing ratio and percent. Practical Arithmetic continues the four functions along with fractions, decimals, percents, metrics, and introduces interest, discount, insurance, taxes, ration, proportions, square and cube roots, measurement, and progressions. Higher Arithmetic reviews the four functions and continues more advanced work in all the Practical Arithmetic topics including percentage applications with and without time. The Teachers Guide, designed to encourage teacher-student interaction, provides a scope and sequence as well as general information on math instructional stages (i.e. manipulatives, mental, abstract). There are also grade by grade teaching sequences along with a Planning Guide that shows a typical day and suggests weekly lesson plans as well as providing an assessment chart and test schedule.
