Excerpt from Robinson’s Progressive Primary Arithmetic: For Primary Classes in Public and Private Schools
Taking one pencil in the right hand, a pupil may show it to the class. The pupils will see that one pencil is shown. Show another pencil in the left hand. Bring both pencils together in the left hand, and the pupils Will see that one pencil and one pencil are two pencils. Take one of the pencils away, and the pupils will see that one pencil from two pencils leaves one pencil.
Suggestions for a large number of such exercises are given in the lessons on pages 5 to 10; and by substituting objects for dots, hundreds of drill questions may easily be made.
