The development of arithmetical concepts in a first grade classroom

Many people seem to agree that arithmetic is hard. Because of this difficulty, there has been a movement to postphone the beginning to arithmetic teaching from first grade to second or third grade. This movement presents an opposing view in relation to other subject matter areas. The actual teaching of other subjects is moving into the lower grades rather than out of the lower grades as teachers realize more and more the importance of these subjects in relation to younger children. Each first grade teacher should realize the resonsibility involved in developing the number readiness that will affect the child's future understanding of the various extensions of the initial concept of number. / Typescript. / "August, 1958." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Sarah Lou Hammond, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaf 39).
