Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Handwork Each course outlined 1s merely a suggestive one, but it is hoped that thoughtful teachers may find sufficient within the limits of this volume to enable them to introduce some or all of the several branches of the subject as herein considered. If a beginning be made, the ingenuity and inventive skill alike of teachers and pupils will enable each branch to he. Carried far beyond the exercises given in these pages. This is especially true of the design and pattern work, the scope for originality of thought and execution being practically unlimited in this interesting and attractive form of hand-and-eye Training. The author is greatly indebted to Mrs. S. B. Patterson, of the Kinder garten Training School at Truro, n.s., for many valuable suggestions and practical help in the revision of the chapters on the Primary work. The advanced portion is chiefly the result 'of the author's experience as a teacher and organizer of Manual Training in the schools of England and Canada.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Purposeful Handwork IT is my hope that this little manual will be re garded by the lay teacher as a compilation of sug gestions, and not as an extensive study, or final treatise on handwork. As society evolves, education must change to keep apace with it, so may this text serve as a waypost, not a goal. It was not my intention, originally, to write a book; the need developed and I met it as I could. The content of these few pages is the result of eight years of work, including experimental kinder garten and first grade teaching, physical education supervision in the elementary school, and Normal Training School instructing. I do not claim it to be original. It is a compila tion of suggestions and ideas which have come to me from my own little daughter, from the children whom it has been my good fortune to teach in public schools, from Normal School students, from observation of daily life, and from individual study. The projects described have been worked out in an average one-teacher, one-room public school kindergarten or first grade of mixed population.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Educational Handwork, Vol. 1: A Complete and Varied Course for Schools Although placed last, the children should be the first consideration of the teacher. The chief suggestion made to those who have the care of the children is that the tools used for the practical work should be simple, and, if possible, such as the children may readily obtain for themselves, so that (if they wish) they will be able to extend their practical work at home. Again, in the interests of the children, we should be careful not to do too much for them. They will make better progress if they have to overcome their own difficulties than is possible if all obstacles are removed. Another point we must keep constantly before us is, that the children must be allowed full opportunity of developing their own individuality. One way of helping to bring this about is to provide opportunity for original work. The quicker children will finish their models, perhaps, ten or fifteen minutes ahead of their fellows. Such pupils should always have at hand a piece of material with which to work out their own ideas. Occasionally, all the children should be required to attempt original work. The various schemes outlined in this book make it possible to carry out all the suggestions given. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handwork and Its Place in Early Education Experience has taught that restless and inquiring pupils need a variety Of forms of employment, hence an attempt has been made to indicate as many as possible of the simple arts and crafts open to them. Special emphasis is laid on the Gifts and Occupa tions of Froebel and on Dr. Dewey's experiments, because a thoughtful study of the work of these reformers cannot fail to be helpful and stimulating to any open-minded student. The introductory chapter is Obviously sketchy and incomplete, but it may help the student to begin to understand something Of the child's fundamental needs and then send her on to_ books which deal adequately with the subject.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handwork as an Educational Medium The doctor's patients have a much stronger belief in the efficacy of drugs than the doctor himself, and the average parent has profounder confidence in the educative value of books than the teacher himself. And, as the 'modern physician tends more and more to recognize that it is Nature that cures, so does the modern educator tend more and more to recognize that it is Nature that teaches, that learning is a spontaneous process which no lack of schooling can stop, and no extent of schooling can do more than modify. The study of this process provides the soundest basis for a theory Of edu cation, and of this process muscular activities are inseverably a part.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Primary Handwork This book is the outgrowth of long experience as a teacher of primary grades, followed by special study of handwork as a factor in elementary education. It is written with three objects in view: First, to gather into a single volume various methods already in use in the more progressive schools, and for which the best suggestions are scattered through current periodicals: Second, to organize these methods and present them in a simple form for the use of teachers who have had no special training in handwork processes: Third, accepting conditions as they exist in the small town school and the one-room country school, as a basis of organization, to offer suggestions which may be easily adapted to the conditions of any school with a view to bringing present practice into closer harmony with the best educational ideals. No claim is laid to originality, beyond the small details in which one person's interpretation of a large problem will differ from that of another. The projects here outlined have been tested in the Public Schools of Columbia, Missouri, under conditions which are common to towns of about the same size. The point of view has been influenced chiefly by the educational philosophy of Prof. John Dewey, especially as expressed in his essay "The Child and the Curriculum."

'among its prominent features is the training in handwork, begun in the kindergarten and continued throughout the common-school years, whence it passes without break into the manual training high schools and special technical institutions. Of the several periods marking this manual training course the weakest is found in the primary school, dealing with pupils of from seven to eleven or twelve years of age. These children have outgrown the employment of the kindergarten and receiving class, but have yet to attain the growth qualify ing them for the forms Of handicraft common in the grammar grades. With a view to partially bridging this hiatus with the help of my many years of intimate acquaintance with children, I have devised these exercises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handwork Instruction for Boys In translating this work I have endeavored to be as literal as possible without injury to the English. The clear, concise style of the author has made this easier to do than would be the case with many German writers. For the convenience of English readers all technical terms have been translated, with the exception of a very few which have no English equivalent. In America there is no institution which corresponds exactly to the Volksschule, Burgerschule, Gymnasium, Realschule, Seminar, or Hilfschule. The Volksschule (plural Volksschulen) is the elementary school of Germany. It differs from the public schools of America in several essentials. In the Volksschule every pupil must pay tuition unless he is too poor to do so. Another point of difference is that while the public schools of our country are attended by nearly every child of school age, the German Volksschule loses many children who prefer to attend other schools. The Burgerschule (plural Burgerschulen) as its name indicates, is a school for the middle classes. The Gymnasium (plural Gymnasien) has a course of nine years of classical work preparatory to the university, while the Real-Gymnasium prepares for advanced technical work in the Technische Hochschule, or technical college.
