Excerpt from The Thorndike Arithmetics Book, Vol. 1

Nothing is included merely for mental gymnastics. Training is obtained through content that is of intrinsic value.

The preparation given is not for the verbally described prob lems of examination papers, but for the actual problems of life. In particular, problems whose answers must be kn own to frame the problems or whose conditions are fantastic are rigorously excluded.

Reasoning is treated, not as a mythical faculty which may be called on to override or veto habits, but as the cooperation, organization, and management of habits; and the logic of proof is kept distinct from the psychology of thinking.

Interest is secured, not in pictures, athletic records, and the like, but in arithmetic itself and its desirable applications. Interest is not added as a decoration or antidote, but is inter fused with the learning itself.

Nothing that is desirable for the education of children in quantitative thinking is omitted merely because it is hard; but the irrelevant linguistic difficulties, the unrealizable pretenses at deductive reasoning, and the unorganized computation which have burdened courses in arithmetic are omitted. The demand here is that pupils shall approximate 100 per cent efficiency with thinking of which they are capable.

The formation and persistence of useful habits is not left to be a chance result of indiscriminate drill and review. Every habit is formed so as to give the maximum of aid to, and theminimum of interference with, others. Other things being equal, no habit is formed that must be later broken; two or three habits are not formed where one will do as well; each is formed as nearly as possible in the way in which it is required to function; each is kept alive and healthy by being made to cooperate in the formation of other and higher habits in the arithmetical hierarchy. If a pupil carries through the projects in computing and problem solving of these three books under competent supervision, he will have abundant practice for the arithmetical insight, knowledge and skill that the elementary school is expected to provide.
