The New-England Primer, first published in the 17th century and widely used through the 18th century, is an educational text designed to teach children the fundamentals of reading, writing, and moral values. This primer integrates the alphabet with religious lessons, using rhyme and illustrations to engage young learners. Each letter corresponds to a word or concept rooted in Christian teachings, encouraging virtue and piety. The book plays a significant role in shaping early American education, reflecting the religious and cultural values of New England society while laying the foundation for literacy and moral instruction in the emerging nation.
