Materials for teaching the axioms of the real numbers to high school students

This sounds like one of those things easiest to accomplish by visiting a university library and browsing the shelves at the locations of real analysis books, transition to advanced mathematics type books, and books dealing with constructions and axiomatizations of the real numbers. I say this because you and your student's background and interests will play a huge role in what is appropriate, and the quickest way of weeding through the large amount of material available is to be in a position where you can immediately look at something for consideration.

Off the top of my head, the following book (which fits into the 3rd category I listed) seems like it might be a good fit:

Stefan Drobot, Real Numbers, Prentice-Hall, 1964, x + 102 pages.

(My comments about the book) This book begins with an axiomatic treatment of the real numbers as a complete ordered field and then discusses various expansions of real numbers (decimal, Cantor, continued fraction), approximation of irrationals by rationals, and (briefly) cardinality and measure of sets of real numbers.

Below are some other possible books. Incidentally, there were a lot of books published in the U.S. during the 1960s having to do with constructions and axiomatizations of the real numbers.

Norman Tyson Hamilton and Joseph Landin, Set Theory and the Structure of Arithmetic, Allyn and Bacon, 1961, xii + 264 pages.

Edmund Jecheksel Landau, Foundations of Analysis, 1951, Chelsea Publishing Company, 1951, xiv + 134 pages.
