Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Complete List of Historical Stories In publishing these plays, I have in mind three general purposes by which I hope to show their value in the teaching of history in the primary grades of our schools. In the first place, by the use of the plays, the children become familiar with the important events of history without realizing that they are performing a difficult task. They find a pleasure in representing the different characters and enter into the important happenings of the life of a character in such a manner that the events are permanently fixed in their minds. Columbus or any other character is, for the time being, a person living among them. They hear his voice and in their imaginations follow his career step by step, feeling his disappointments and enjoying the success with him. They are brought to see the past and to act out its life in such a manner that its characters become their heroes rather than persons about whom pages have been written to be learned. As they advance through the grades, the characters seem to draw them toward a book so that they may know more about their lives. Instead of giving the pupils page after page for a lesson, we will then find them eager to learn all they can about a character and the events which brought his career to worthy notice in history.

It came up around the king's chair, and wet not only his feet, but also his robe. His officers stood about him, alarmed, and won-der-ing whether he was not mad. Then Canute took off his crown, and threw it down upon the sand. I shall never wear it again, he said. And do you, my men, learn a lesson from. What you have seen. There is only one King who is all-powerful; and it is he who rules the sea, and holds the ocean in the hollow of his hand. It is he whom you ought to praise and serve above all others.

Download or read book A List of English and American Sequel Stories Classic Reprint written by Thomas Aldred and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-02-06 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A List of English and American Sequel Stories In order to serve useful purposes I have included (a) Stories in which the same character appears in more than one book (b) Series forming a continuous narrative of events; (c) Trilogies and the like; (d) A few other notes. The material has been drawn from very many sources, some being of doubtful reliability, and in the absence of other data has had to be used without confirmation. It is probable that there are some errors of commission and, on account of the difficulty of obtaining information of sequence-stories, many more of omission. I should therefore be glad if corrections and notes of additions were sent to me direct. To keep down the cost of printing, initials only are given of fore-names; dates of publication and names of publishers are omitted for the same season. The missing particulars are easily obtainable from the usual reference works. Contrary to code rule, compound-names are entered under the latter part of the names. Writers using pen-names are entered under the pseu'donyms with no cross reference from the real name to the pseudonym.

Download or read book Fifty Famous People written by James Baldwin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fifty Famous People: A Book of Short Stories One of the best things to be said of the stories in this volume is that, although they are not biographi cal, they are about real persons who actually lived and performed their parts in the great drama of the world's history. Some of these persons were more famous than others, yet all have left enduring footprints on the sands of time, and their names will not cease to be remembered. In each of the stories there is a basis of truth and an ethical lesson which cannot fail to have a wholesome influence; and each possesses elements of interest which, it is believed, will go far towards prov ing the fallibility of the doctrine that children find delight only in tales of the imaginative and unreal. The fact that there are a few more than fifty famous people mentioned in the volume may be credited to the author's to give good measure.

If there had been, perhaps what happened never would have happened. Then again, who can tell? Perhaps it was bound to happen.

But the books are all so good there really is no reason for cutting them out just because the list is long. It is a good thing to give variety and for people to have a good many to choose from. There are no books there which have not some positive merit, so far as I know the books. I have not made any marks on the picture books, which subject I must familiarize myself with, and the books for older children in your list are what we librarians class as adults' It is a matter of personal taste and opinion about what books to recommend for the betweens age. Those on your list are certainly good. I think the whole thing is excellent, and there is no need of having a sort of measured-out balance or proportion such as a business librarian might think of in apportioning public money.
