Publisher's Synopsis

""How Gertrude Teaches Her Children: An Attempt To Help Mothers To Teach Their Own Children And An Account Of The Method"" is a book written by Johann Heinrich Pestalozzi in 1894. The book is a guide for mothers who want to teach their own children and provides an account of the method used by Gertrude, a fictional mother, to educate her children. The book focuses on the importance of educating children at home and provides practical advice for mothers on how to do so. It covers a wide range of topics, including language, mathematics, and morals, and provides examples of lessons and activities that can be used to teach children. Pestalozzi's method emphasizes the importance of hands-on learning, observation, and individualized instruction. He argues that children should be taught in a way that is tailored to their individual needs and interests, and that they should be encouraged to explore and discover the world around them. Overall, ""How Gertrude Teaches Her Children"" is a valuable resource for mothers who want to take an active role in their children's education and provides a timeless approach to teaching that is still relevant today.A Report To The Society Of The Friends Of Education, Burgdorf.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
