Book A Companion to School Classics  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Companion to School Classics Classic Reprint written by James Gow and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Companion to School Classics This little book is founded, in the main, on notes which I have from time to time dictated to my pupils. Its scope has thus been limited by practical considerations, which I have vaguely indicated by calling it, "A Companion to School Classics." By 'school classics' I mean classics with commentaries for use in schools, and by describing the book as a 'companion' to these, I mean that it attempts to give the information which a commentator is, from the nature of his task, compelled to assume even in a young student. There are subjects which are of constant and vital interest for very large groups of familiar authors. d104ual criticism is obviously one, the customs of the Theatre another. Similarly, the historians and orators can hardly be understood without a clear grasp of the Public Economy of Athens and Rome, and (not to mention Plato or Lucretius) Euripides, Aristophanes, Cicero, and Horace, teem with allusions to Philosophy. A commentary on a particular text cannot deal at large with these subjects, or any of them; neither does a dictionary, in which the articles are dislocated by their alphabetical order. In works of either kind, a vast mass of details is presented, but not the history or theory by which such details can be correlated, and through which they are most easily remembered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classics Old and New: A Series of School Readers Good expression in reading is the product of sympathy and understanding, and therefore, the child who likes to read is quite sure to take first rank as a good reader. The controlling purpose of Classics, Old and New is to inspire in children a love for reading, and thus, without their being conscious of the fact, induce in them the reading habit. This is about the best and safest of all habits. If we contrive to teach young people the mechanical art of reading, and fail, at the same time, to breed in them the impulse and desire to continue their education throughout life by reading, we have cheated them out of the best thing to be obtained by going to school. Good literature is an expression for the best of the world's activity, and the power latent in such literature to lift and en lighten the mind and spirit is greater than any other power, save, perhaps, the influences of home. The formal education of many of the children that will use this series of readers will cease with the elementary schools. This fact makes the prepara tion of the readers a very serious task, especially to one who knows children well enough to realize how difficult it is to know them at all.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classics Old and New: A Series of School Readers; A Third Reader At frequent intervals through the volume, language lessons are given which furnish a systematic language drill, without any attempt whatever to teach technical grammar. The suggestions of each language lesson should not be limited in application to the story under which it is found, but should be judiciously used by teachers as an exercise with other reading lessons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The School World, Vol. 6 It is often denied that it is the function of a school drawing-class to venture into what is styled special teaching. It is contended that an ele mentary art class conducted in a school as part of a general education entails quite a different view of the subject from that required by the elementary class of an art school. But this is certainly not the case. A young student of art and the art he studies are precisely similar in both, and the course of elementary work should be exactly the same wherever it is carried on. The student commencing at the special school will probably devote more time to the subject, and his progress will rapidly arrive at the point where specialisation really begins; but his early studies aim at arousing and developing the same faculties that should be cultivated in the school class-room.
