Avslutningsord

Med dette vil jeg avslutte innleggene på denne bloggen for en stund. Jeg har nå i virkeligheten lagt inn to lærebøker - en for barn fra fødsel opp til 10-årsalderen, og en for 5. - 7. klasse. Innholdet er ment å treffe lærere og studenter, ikke elevene. Trolig har antall lesere vært lavt, men om noe av stoffet skulle bli spredt med tiden, er min misjon oppfylt.

Den første boken er den mest gjennomarbeidede. Den er vurdert av fagfeller, og den er har gjennomgått grundig korrekturlsing. Den var klarert for trykking, men forlaget trakk seg i aller siste liten, så mitt håp om å få lagt den ut for vanlig salg forsvant. Stoffet som omhandler mellomtrinnet er ikke vurdert av andre, og det er mer preget av mine personlige oppfatninger enn stoffet om de yngre barna. På den andre siden, er det min klare oppfatning at det er nettopp på mellomtrinnet norsk skole har størst behov for å skjerpe seg når det gjelder matematikkfaget. Etter å ha jobbet med slikt stoff en menneskealder, tror jeg faktisk at jeg har noe å bidra med i så måte, men innser at muligheten til å øve innflytelse er meget begrenset.

Helt til slutt setter jeg inn referansene som er brukt i siste del.
