Excerpt from Elements of the Grub??? Method N 1842 Grube issued his work entitled Leitfaden flir das Rechnen in der Ele mentarschule, (guide for Reckoning in the Primary School). This work intro duced a new idea in teaching number; it carries forward the four processes, - ad dition, subtraction, multiplication and division at the same time. The efiect of this was to revolutionize the method of teaching number in Ger many; the methods now employed there are founded upon Grube's idea. Undoubtedly the inspiration of Grube's work was found in Pestalozzi, whose teachings deeply stirred Germany just before Grube came on the stage. Pestalozzi had learned from Rousseau that the proper teacher of children is Nature that her laws and her methods are the only safe and sure guide. Grube made a practical use of it in his system of teaching number. He holds that the carrying of the four pro cesses together, the mastering of each number as a step by itself, the use of objects leading from the concrete tiling to the abstract number, is the order of nature. His method starts out with processes which are based entirely upon observation, but gradually objects are abandoned and a greater use made of the reasoning powers. Grube's system is planned to cover the first four years of school, and contemplates an equivalent of three hours per week for four years, during which the funda mental rules, compound numbers, and fractions are mastered. As a great many children do not remain in school longer than four years, and as the subjects mas tered are nearly all that are of value in practical life.
