Methods in Mental ARITHMETIC.

The abuse of mental arithmetic caused
its Punishment from the majority of
schools. Properly used, it affords drill
that develops mental grasp, and paves
the way for mathematical elearness and
accuracy. Always make the exercise
short and vigorous. Direct methods and
concise explanations should be encourag-
ed. Wordy explanations destroy its real
value. We give few devices that help
to vary the routine and to get good lively
work.
Carefully select ten problems.
Have the pupils number page of their
notebooks for the answers. When you
have every eye, read the problem dis
tinctly and but once. At tap of the
pencil, let all answers he written at the
same time Have papers exchanged
and then call on some one to read his
answe rs, while others mark mistakes
Let hose having 100 per cent. stand
then those having 80 per cent. join them
and 80 on. Begin with quite easy pro
blems; but make them more difficult and
feed them faster as the pupil gains in
power. Call for explanations of the pro
blems that have proved most trouble
some.
2.-Select five more difficult problems
Let the whole school stand. Read
one, and if it is quite long call on some
pupil to restate it. Let each boy sit as
soon as he gets the answer. When all
or the majority, are seated, call for
answers. Have some one give explana
ton, and then see if some volunteers
cannot offer some other methods. Set q
premium on directness, by asking the
class which solution is the clearest and
most to the point.
3.-This is an application of the old
method of spelling down." All stand
and answer in turn down the columns.
Let the problems be short and given
rapidly. Hesitancy and wrong answers
count alike as failures and down" the
pupil. Whenever an inattentive pupil is
seen in any column, select him for tar.
get and fire the next problem at him.
Brief explanations may be called for in
addition to the answers. GA man
bought COW for $50 and sold her for S75
What was his gain per cent?" Pupil:
"He gained $15; one-fourth or % per
cent. of the cost"
Aft there are any who prefer sitting
down to making genuine effort, the
last method may be reversed for their
benefit. Let the ones who miss stand
This spelling up" process is a sure cure
for the few lazy ones that are pretty apt
to be found in most schools. Excellent
material may be found in several Of the
standard mental arithmetics; but many
problems must be made by the teacher
We have also had the pupils make and
hand in ten problems each on any given
| subject. Find out just where your pupil:
are weakest, and then work at that point
until they have mastered it.-Cou,tg
