2. purpose
Math for me has always been a challenge and It seems that every teacher has their own way of teaching it.
The purpose of this project is to compare 8th grade math work in the McPherson county district schools (1900s) to our school systems today.
Questions:
How did the students learn math in the 1900s and what kind of work did they do?
Has math work changed since then, have students learned differently in our schools today?

The way the kids had to do multiplication then was one of the methods I learned myself in 2nd-3rd grade (the long way). But I’ve also seen the newer way, which is with the chart.
