The three Rs (as in the letter R)[1] are three basic skills taught in schools: reading, writing and arithmetic (usually said as 'reading, writing, and 'rithmetic'). The phrase appears to have been coined at the beginning of the 19th century.

Origin and meaning[edit]
The skills themselves are alluded to in St. Augustine's Confessions: Latin: ..legere et scribere et numerare discitur 'learning to read, and write, and do arithmetic'.[2]
The phrase is first attested as a space-filler in 'The Lady's Magazine' for 1818.[dubious] While it is sometimes attributed to a speech given by Sir William Curtis circa 1807, this is disputed.[3][4][5] An extended modern version of the three Rs consists of the 'functional skills of literacy, numeracy and ICT'.[6]
The educationalist Louis P. Bénézet preferred 'to read', 'to reason', 'to recite', adding, 'by reciting I did not mean giving back, verbatim, the words of the teacher or of the textbook. I meant speaking the English language.'[7]
