The purpose of this study is to analyze certain recent trends in the teaching of arithmetic, particularly those trends which have dealt with the reconstruction of the curriculum, and to determine to what extent the advocated theories seem to have been put into practice in the elementary school, according to reports in various school magazines and bulletins.
