Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Vital English First Book Elementary Composition The authors have chosen the title Vital English advisedly. The primary aim has been to make the work alive - close to the real needs of the youth of the present day. Added to this constant appeal to the interests of the children is the method of presentation. A clear, logical development of units of thought, with an abundance of illustrative and drill exercises, makes the progress steady and the knowledge thus acquired usable and cumulative. Only the most important and absolutely essential units of thought have been selected for study. Some of the newer phases of thought which are more and more coming to be recognized as having a place in the study of English have been used in the series of lessons on "Community Helpers" and "Dramatizing." A helpful correlation with history, geography, science, and other related school subjects is shown in the lessons on "How Books Came to Be" and "Lessons from Nature." In brief, we aim 1. To appeal to the vital, essential interests of children. 2. To develop units of thought in clear, logical order. 3. To provide ample material for study or for written exercises.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Composition A word should be said about the subjects for composition. The object has been to make them as varied and suggestive as possible. But no per son can assign subjects for composition so happily as the teacher of a class. She is acquainted with the manifold interests of the little community of which she has charge. Their lives are crowded with incidents; their minds have earnest thoughts; their hearts quiver with deep feeling. The real teacher keeps close to the hearts of her children; for there are rich mines of living themes. The subjects in the book are good, and will suggest methods of using material; but the best composi tions come from the pulsing lives of the children.

What he feels he makes known; as soon as he can talk, he tells all he knows. If he is happy, he laughs; if he is sad, he cries. Only older folks learn to inhibit their thoughts and to conceal what goes on in the heart and brain. In other words; man is a reacting organism, and ex pression is the reactive phase of mental life. It is the only evidence we have that there is mental life, and is the sole measure of a man's power and useful ness in the world.

Download or read book English Composition in Elementary Schools Classic Reprint written by James S. Snoddy and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Composition in Elementary Schools A boy learns to plow by plowing; he learns to write by writing. Instead of having him memorize rules and definitions with regard to writing we should let him learn their application by practice. The one aim of the teacher should be the rousing of the pupil's interest. This can be done only by finding some means of appealing to his personal experience. The first means to be employed in the teaching of composition should be conversations with the children about things which they have seen or about incidents which they have experienced. The children should be encouraged to engage freely in these conversations - to tell about things they have seen, and to tell their experiences. The next step might be the telling and reading of stories. These stories should be made topics of conversations, and the pupils required to reproduce them in their own words as fully as possible. The stories may be taken from history, travels and biography; but fables and fairy stories should not be neglected; they are, in most instances, the best of all. The active imaginations of the children demand them. In addition to these fables and stories the beautiful myths of olden times can be made both profitable and interesting. While these various stories, fables and myths are being used as means for teaching the first steps in composition, selections from our best authors can be made to subserve the same purpose. There are scores and scores of little verses that could be used as memory gems and topics of conversation in the composition work of the lower grades. Take, for example, the poem beginning with, "What does little birdie say In her nest at break of day?" by Alfred Tennyson About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Composition for Elementary Schools a Composition Grammar Classic Reprint written by Cyrus Lauron Hooper and published by . This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Composition for Elementary Schools a Composition Grammar Two widely different methods of teaching composition are found in schools. One, the strictly technical method, makes constant use of the principles of rhetoric and grammar, and ignores the gain in power that may come to the pupil from the frequent and unfettered expression of his thoughts and experiences. The other reverses the process, trusting to the frequency of the act of composition to bring the pupil to a state of accuracy in his use of English. It is not likely that a great number of teachers rely wholly upon either one of these methods of instruction; but very few have been able to make a rational combination of the two, so that principles learned at any time may be used at once and thus become fixed as habit. More progress has been made in the case of rhetoric than in that of grammar, for while unity and the accompanying qualities of a theme have been taught to pupils as guiding principles of composition, a thorough and effective knowledge of syntax has often not been deemed necessary, or, perhaps, has been sought in the isolated study of grammar. Something may indeed be accomplished by such study, but it is the least economical method, and the one least likely to have an effect on oral and written language. This means of teaching the technique of the sentence has had its trial. While it may be true that the country was never so grammar-mad as it was once spelling-mad, it is yet true that grammar as an isolated study had, for a long time, its due share of attention in the curriculum, and that it failed to influence our use of language in a degree proportional to the time spent upon it.

Download or read book Elementary English Composition Classic Reprint written by Fred Newton Scott and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary English Composition The indifference of younger classes in the secondary schools to their English composition is due to a variety of causes, of which three are worthy of special considera tion. In_ the first place, there is a lack of novelty in present methods of teaching the subject. The kind of work that is usually prescribed for such classes seems to the pupils to be a mere repetition of what they have tried over and over again in the lower grades. The grammar review, for instance, which confronts them on the threshold of the secondary course, is usually nothing more than a re-view, affording them no new view of their English, and calling for the exercise of no new form of ingenuity that might enlist their interest. In the second place, one side of the pupil's training in English, and a most important side, is at this stage of his progress almost entirely neglected. The forces which urge young persons to express themselves with tongue or pen are partly individual, partly social, partly impulses from within, partly solicitations from without. Pupils com pose most naturally and most successfully when the two forces are in equilibration. But at the beginning of secondary instruction it is not uncommon for the teacher to rely upon the inward stimulus alone. He does not lead his pupils to think of the other man for whom they are writing or speaking. He leaves them in the attitude, and the spirits, of soldiers who are firing their ammunition into the void.

This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories and Outlines for Composition The purpose of this book is to provide, for the use of teachers in elementary schools, a fund of materials for composition, to supplement those in the authorized text-books. The author has tried to write the stories, many of which will be recognized as old and familiar friends, in a form that will be suitable to the capacity of the pupils for whom they are designed. The picture stories are developed from pictures that are familiar and easily obtainable, many of them appearing in text-books in Composition in use in the schools. The outlines, which appear in the latter part of the book, are based upon topics which will be easily adjusted to the interests of the pupils. A few of these outlines are derived from well-known stories and poems, which frequently appear in school Readers, and which, in any event, are easily accessible to teachers. It is hoped that the brief suggestions as to method will be found useful in the presentation of the materials to pupils.
