Administrators want the best educational program for their schools, and they want parents to support that program. Parents want the very best for their children in everything, including mathematics education. They remember arithmetic as the mainstay of elementary school mathematics and want their children to acquire the computational skills that they see as necessary for everyday life and future work.

This is the thirteenth in the series of annual listings of research concerned with elementary school mathematics.1 The annotated format used for the last two listings has been retained. The annotations do not summarize the study in most cases; rather, an attempt was made to state the findings that may be of particular importance to the teacher. They may serve to guide readers to those studies that are most pertinent for their needs. Little evaluation is possible when space is limited; however, each of the findings has some support within the limitations of the study on which it is based.

The methods component of mathematics education in the United States has seldom been static. Particularly interesting is the cyclic nature of recurring issues and their varying proposed soltllions.

The elementary school mathematics teacher has an important job—that of laying the foundation for his pupils' future work in mathematics. However, in his efforts to teach mathematics so that children understand the concepts behind their work, there may be a tendency to overlook the fact that all ideas in mathematics cannot be justified. The very nature of mathematical thought is such that there are some basic ideas we must agree to accept.

This is the eleventh of a series of annual listings of research concerned with elementary school mathematics. During the very important period of change in elementary mathematics education from 1957 to 1966 the summaries were compiled by Dr. J. Fred Weaver of the University of Wisconsin.1 We hope that this listing will prove to be as valuable as the previous ones.2
