1. Draw a horizontal line 6" long.
2. Erect perpendiculars at each end, using triangle.
3. Complete rectangle.
4. Mark off distances 1" down from A and B, and connect with a horizontal line.
5. Mark off 1" distances on AB, and erect perpendiculars at these points to the horizontal line just drawn. 6. Draw another horizontal line ½" from AB. 7. Mark off ½" distances on AB, and erect perpendiculars to'this line.
Note. - Teach the qualities of a rectangle, parallel horizontal and parallel vertical lines and accurate measurements.

1. Construct rectangle and mark inches and half inches. (See
Model No. 1.)
2. Draw horizontal line ¼" from AB.
3. Mark off ¼" spaces on AB and draw perpendiculars through these points to line just drawn.
Note. - Additional practice may be given in the use of the ¼" fraction. (See note, Model No. 16.)

1. Construct as in Models No. 1 and No. 11.
2. Draw a line ⅛ " from the base.
3. Set off ⅛" distances on the base and draw the perpendiculars.
Note. - Give some exercises using the ⅛" fraction.
Instead of making this model, the ⅛ fraction may be drawn on Model No. 11.

This lesson is intended for a review, and may be drawn on paper only. For construction, see drawing, and Models 1 and 16, first year. The fraction 1/16" is added and may be drawn on one or more inch spaces.
