An Experiment in Number Teaching is a book written by Jeannie Barbara Thomson and originally published in 1922. The book is a detailed account of a unique teaching method that the author developed and implemented in a primary school in Scotland. The method was designed to help children learn and understand numbers more easily and effectively. The book is divided into two parts. In the first part, Thomson describes the problems she observed with traditional methods of teaching arithmetic, and how she came up with her own approach. She explains the importance of making numbers tangible and concrete, and how she used everyday objects to help children visualize and understand mathematical concepts. The second part of the book provides a step-by-step guide to the teaching method. It covers topics such as counting, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division, and fractions. Each chapter includes detailed instructions and examples of how to use the method effectively. Throughout the book, Thomson emphasizes the importance of engaging children's imaginations and making learning fun. She also emphasizes the need for teachers to be patient and flexible, and to adapt their teaching to the individual needs and abilities of each child. Overall, An Experiment in Number Teaching is a fascinating and insightful book that offers a unique perspective on teaching mathematics. It is a valuable resource for teachers, parents, and anyone interested in innovative approaches to education.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
