Great Article Supporting Delayed Math Instruction

This article, written many, many years ago is so great in explaining why one would want to delay formal math instruction in schools.

I think it's a great article to share with the more schooly adversaries of unschooling!

Of course, the saddest thing about the article, published as a series of three articles between Nov. '35 and Jan. '36, is that it hasn't seemed to make any difference! I know of no schools using this information in their curriculum.

My main reason for sharing this with the blogging world is to have a place for me to find the article again!
