Excerpt from The Stone-Millis Arithmetics: Intermediate IN the preparation of this series of arithmetics the chief aims have been more adequately to adapt the subject matter to the experiences, interests, and immediate needs of children, and to provide means for a mastery of the formal phases of arithmetic through more scientifically organized drills. The books are based upon the principles that knowledge to be real must be founded upon the actual experiences of the individual learner; that knowledge to be retained must be given opportunity for use, the more immediately the better; and that a necessary condition for true learning is that the process be self-actuated through motive or interest.
