Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Education of Childhood
Of course, this is no attempt to outline a detailed course in physics, geometry, or any other subject, for the guidance of instruction and training in the primary-grammar school, but rather to indicate the practicability of such an outline at the hands of expert educators, and to show that such courses as are here advocated are within the range of the devel opment of the child and that such courses properly outlined and taught, will greatly facilitate that devel opment, and will constitute the best possible, most economical and efficient, preparation for the taking up of advanced courses along the same lines. It is further contended that there will be both an increased development and a great saving of time, in that the child will be ready to undertake advanced courses at an. Earlier period, and at the same time be better prepared than now for the mastery of these courses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
