This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Elementary School Gymnastics Primitive life. - During all these ages our ancestors lived a life of the most strenuous physical exertion. As far back as. Savage life in the temperate zone can be traced, the men hunted, fished, carried on war, and took part in religious ceremonies; the women made the clothing and the shelter, prepared the food, and made all the utensils needed in their work, besides caring for the children and the domestic animals. These two types of bodily exercise are quite different; that of the men was severe to the highest degree for a time, with periods of complete rest between; a type of exercise we now call athletic. That of the women was less severe but more steady and continuous; of the type of manual labor. As a result of these occupations both men and women were strong and vigorous; they lived and thrived in spite of unsanitary conditions and exposure to all kinds of weather and hardship. These two types of bodily exercise, carried on so vigorously for so many successive genera tions, no doubt did much to develop the two types of bodily form and proportions that men and women now inherit. Civilized life - If we continue to study the occupations of our ancestors down to a later day, we find that they changed their habits of life a little from time to time, but until very lately they still led lives of great bodily activity. The pioneers of the early colonies along our Atlantic coast, and even those who settled our own state in the early part of the last century, were people of strong physique, manv of them not a whit inferior in strength and endurance to the savages who lived here before them. One hundred years ago fully 95970 of the population of the United States lived in the country, and the same was true of the middle west fifty years ago. Men cleared the forest with the axe, sowed and planted by hand, 'cut their grain with sickles, and threshed it with fiails. Women did all the household work, including all of the dairy and laundry work, made all the clothing, and not far back they also made the cloth from which the clothing was made. Pioneer life called for muscular work and developed a sturdy race of people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hints to Gymnasts: Being Sound Advice and Hints to Leaders and Teachers in Gymnasia and Schools IN compiling this book our object has been to bring within the reach of those Teachers of Physical Education, Amateur or Professional, who have not had an Opportunity of going through a proper Course of Instruction in Gymnastics, a means of acquiring the necessary knowledge to enable' them to fulfil their duties in a creditable manner. Notwithstanding the many laudable efforts made by several Institutions, notably the Orion and German Gymnastic Clubs, the British College of Physical Education, the Amateur Gymnastic and Fencing Association, and recently the Gymnastic Teachers' Institute, to spread a more scientific knowledge of Gymnastics among Leaders and Instructors, our experience, extending over 20 years, has taught us that the great majority of Provincial Teachers have still much to learn as to the benefits to be derived from a system of teaching based on scientific principles. There are, of course, notable exceptions, but these only tend to prove more conclu sively the truth of our assertion. It is, of course, impossible for us in these few pages to entirely cover the whole field of gymnastics, but it is hoped that our readers may find therein the groundwork whereby they may be enabled to teach a more modernised system than that which now generally obtains. Much of the matter that appears in this book has been published in the columns of the gymnast' and athletic review, but knowing from personal experience how desirable it is to have Articles and Exercises such as these in handy book form, we have, at the repeated request of many of our readers, decided to so publish them, and we trust that it may be the means of popularising a better Gymnastic knowledge among a class of Gymnasts who have no other means of making themselves acquainted with the art of teaching others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gymnastic Exercises for Elementary Schools: Supplemented by Fancy Steps and Games In selecting and arranging the material for this book, I have tried to meet the demand especially of those teachers who are being more and more called upon to add to their curriculum this branch of physical education, namely, gymnastics. Several years of experience in elementary grades and in normal teaching have shown what the grade teacher, as well as the normal pupil, would find essential and helpful in teaching gymnastics. A teacher's text-book to meet the general needs must be of such a nature that the simple and combined movements which it describes may be easily understood and accurately reproduced. This is provided for by definite descriptions of all movements, positions, and combinations, and by illustrations of many of the fundamental positions. The use of technical terms is reduced to a minimum. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneers of Modern Physical Training Denmark was the first European state to introduce physi cal training into its schools as an essential part of the course and to prepare teachers of that subject by offering sys tematic instruction in theory and method of gymnastics. The leader in this movement, and its director for forty years, was franz nachtegall (177 7 - 1847 whose whole life was passed in Copenhagen. As a student in the uni versity there he had applied himself to fencing and vaulting, and after his father's death undertook to support himself by giving instruction in gymnastics, at first in a private school. In 1799 he organized a gymnastic club composed of stu dents and young merchants, and on November 5 of the same year opened a. Private gymnasium, the first institution in modern times devoted exclusively to physical training. The venture was successful from the start. When five years later the government established a Military Institute for training non-commissioned officers to teach gymnastics in the army, its management was entrusted to Nachtegall, who received the title Professor of Gymnastics. The King also started, in 1808, a Civil Gymnastic Institute, in order to pre pare teachers for the elementary schools. A law passed in 1814 decreed that every school in Denmark Should provide grounds and apparatus for gymnastics, and that wherever the teachers were able to direct it the children should be given an hour of exercise each day, in addition to the regu lar schedule. Nachtegall was appointed Director of Gym nasties in 1821, his duties extending to the schools of the army and navy as well as to civil institutions. He pub lished, In 1828, a Manual of Gymnastics for Elementary Schools, the first book of its kind, and three years later' a Manual of Gymnastics for Use in Secondary Schools. Both were afterwards translated into German. Nachtegall resigned his position as Director of Gymnastics in 1842. Consult the American Physical Education Review for June, 1904 (vol. IX., pp. 97-99 and 107. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Gymnastics in the School Room: A Manual for the Use of Teachers Eal life requires men of strength and nerves, but no weaklings. That man, however, who is a slave of his body, and who sees himself forced to yield to his bodily affections, becomes a weakling. He will shun every unpleasant affection from without, and will involuntarily feel himself attracted to what he expects to find agreeable. Such a man will become either intemperate and over-fond of pleasure or hypochondriac; that is, his entire dependence upon the affections of his body discourages him. Such a spoiled and effeminate person looks only to the wants of his body; he is inattentive to the ideals of life, and renounces them when their attain. Ment is attended by difficulties. Low selfishness is a characteristic of such persons. A selfish man cares more for his appetite than the future of his race. Such evils must be fought by rational education, and it is the duty of those, to whom the instruction of the children in the public schools has been intrusted to try to educate citizens for the State, who are so free from the affections of the body that they do not stand in the way of the common good. It must he therefore an essential care of the public schools, to devote to the body the same attention, which is undeniably bestowed upon the mind.

Download or read book A Teachers Course in Physical Training written by Wilbur P. Bowen and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Teachers' Course in Physical Training: A Brief Study of the Fundamental Principles of Gymnastic Training; Designed for Teachers of the Public Schools The only excuse for the existence of this little volume is necessity. It has been the duty of the author, during the past four years, to give a ten Weeks' course in the, theory of Physical Training to meet the needs of students prepar ing to teach in the grades of the public schools. It is of course imperative that-these prospective teachers be given as clear an insight as possible into the principles of Anat omy, Physiology, Hygiene, Gymnastic technique, and Peda gogy upon which the teaching of Physical Training de pends. The attempt to have this knowledge acquired by reference to the standard works in these subjects, -a plan that is perfectly feasible in the case of students taking a more complete course, - has resulted in the use of a large amount of time that was comparatively unproductive, because the books that are reliable are very full and very technical in their discussions of these matters. The cir cuinstances demand the use of a text, to be supplemented by lectures, demonstrations and recitations. Such a guide was not to be found in the market, - hence the necessity.
