Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions on Teaching Geography The attention of teachers and of those fitting themselves to be teachers is called especially to the introductory chapters. They may not approve of all that is said; but as honest students they will seek after the truth for its own sake, and these chapters may guide them in the way that leads to it. The chapters under Imaginary Excursions are in tended as models to be followed by the pupils. It is hoped they may take as much pleasure in studying them as the writer did in their preparation. If they do, it is certain that those lessons will not prove burdensome in the least. It is with the hope that it may help teachers and pupils to see the profit and pleasure there are in the study of Geography that this volume has been prepared by Their friend.

This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions to Teachers of Geography Children should very early be made to realize that the text-book contains valuable informa tion, and they should be taught how to get that information from its pages. After any lesson has been given orally, and certain important facts in it have been summed up by the children and particularly dwelt on, then, on the next day for instance, the teacher should use the book and have the lesson read, stopping after each paragraph to question for the particular thought or thoughts contained in it. Then at the end of the reading lesson she should have a number of children tell, each in his own words, the gist of the whole lesson but find no fault if the pupils use the words of the text, provided the sense of the matter is manifestly understood. With pupils who are just beginning the use of a text-book the teacher will do well to study each lesson from the text-book in this way instead of assigning lessons to be learned by them. Help of this kind is much more likely to lead young children to right methods of study than is any amount of learning a lesson by heart or of poring over it by themselves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography: Suggestions Regarding Principles and Methods for the Use of Teachers For some years past there has been a growing recog nition of the extremely unsatisfactory position of Geography in the general educational system of this country. Various suggestions and efforts have been made to place the subject on a better footing. But reform in such matters is necessarily Slow. Inveterate habits of use and wont are apt to blind us to the need for change, and any attempt to alter the existing sys tem touches many different kinds of vested interests. Even those who sympathise with the proposals for reform raise their hands in despair, and ask where, amid the crowd of subjects now demanded, room is to be found for any new topic, or for any expansion of an old one. I fully recognise the gravity of these difficulties, and am by no means sanguine that they are all likely soon to be cleared away.

This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggestions on Teaching Geography in the Schools of Mississippi I. Food. Necessity for it, production, exchange, transportation, climatic influence, etc. Begin by asking each pupil separately to name one article of food he had for dinner; then other things he eats. Let them name all the foods they know; then ask to have a list written ready for the next lesson. Second Lesson. Have several lists read, and let each child add to his list the foods he forgot to name. Then ask which grew in the ground and which came from animals. Make the list over under the heads of vegetable and animal. Salt, water, etc., may be placed under minerals after telling them that they belong to neither of the other classes. The new list may be neatly prepared for the third lesson. Then the discussion is about which articles are produced at home and which are bought, it the school is in the country. If there are no home products, then lead them to find out which are grown nearby and which come from a distance. The last will cause them to study the green grocers, the meat markets, the fruit stands, the grocery store, and will furnish material for a good bit of work and several lessons, involving a mention of transportation and different climates - the wheat from the North and the bananas from the Hot Belt. No more than a mention, however - the study comes later. The country school has a tremendous opportunity here for study ing the products firsthand. The pupil can get most of his informa tion from observation with only suggestions from his teacher. He can group his products as fruits, berries, vegetables, cereals, meats, etc and the foreign grown product can be treated as suggested for the town.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography To all students of geography it is a lamentable fact that there is even yet a lack of respect for this branch of science. Though we have a new geography rich and vital in its possibilities to contribute to twentieth century education, yet all too many teachers are oblivious of the significance and value of the subject and, in the schoolroom, are rattling the dry bones of formal statement and definition. Their view of the subject, and their method of teaching it, restricts its value and curtails the interest which it ought to enlist from pupils. The object of this volume is, first of all, to present and instill in the minds of teachers the true nature of modern geography. Therefore Part I is devoted to the Nature and Scope of Geography. It is hoped that its careful study will result in establishing a correct and broad view of a subject whose content is rich in edu cative possibilities.

And in order to their more speedy improvement, the master should assist his pupil in finding out upon the map the particular place of which his lesson treats, and at a future time examine him as to his recollection of what he has leafned, in order to fix his atten tion, and that he may retain the facts. It is highly necessary that the different parts of each of these maps should be distinguished by different colours, or at least by points or lines. To render the scholar acquainted with the meaning of geographical terms, two Prints are given, which likewise serve to assist the teacher in explaining them to his p ils.

Download or read book Geographical Spice written by Eliza Happy Morton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geographical Spice: A Manual for the Use of Teachers Most of the teachers in our public schools have but little time to search in libraries or in books they may have at home for brief descriptions of the great wonder flowers that bloom in the gardens of the world; hence a book giving tried, tested, and reliable notes of this kind must be welcome. Supplementary matter of this kind must always be secondary to leading principles, and should be used to make great truths shine out more clearly. It is easy for a bright teacher to amuse a class, and to make a lesson resemble a parlor entertainment of games and fairy tales, but that should be far from the object sought. Geographical Spice should be used, not as a material out of which lessons are to be constructed, but, as the name implies, as some thing to be introduced naturally in connection with everyday work for the purpose of kindling the child's enthusiasm, awakening his imagination, and arousing his interest in things and places far off and unseen.

Modern Facts and Ancient Fancies The suggestions offered in the following Manual have been prompted by experience in the School-room, as well as by that of exploration and travel. They are intended as a sup plement, and not as a substitute, for the ordinary work of the teacher. They will be of no avail whatever where the only aim in 'the study of geography is the preparation for examination. I have thought it unnecessary to present any graded course of study. The admirable work of Professor Frye, 'child and Nature, ' leaves in that direction nothing to be desired. Mr. Nicholl's 'topics in Geography' will also be found a most useful companion.

Download or read book Methods of Teaching Geography written by Lucretia Crocker and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Teaching Geography: Notes of Lessons It was necessary to determine what could be done, and what could be omitted. A mere outlining of a plan of study would be neither helpful nor satisfactory. It seemed desirable, therefore, to try to indicate the stages of a progressive course of study, and to present methods of teaching a few important points. The topics selected for fuller treatment were among those that require simple and careful presenta tion by teachers, in order that the concise statements of the text-books may be comprehended by pupils. It should be stated, however, that these topics, when illustrated in their proper connections in the regular class-teaching, will not have the undue prominence that was given them designedly in this brief course of lessons. The printed notes indicate the arrangement and method followed; but the lessons were not written out at the time they were given, and no attempt has been made to reproduce them in full.
