Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Elementary Composition and Grammar: June, 1913, From the President's Office to the University Library It is not necessary to discuss the importance Of English train ing in the schools; that this importance is recognized in school practice is shown by the fact that usually more time is given to English than to any other subject in the school curriculum. Perhaps no other subject presents such difficulties for the teacher. These difficulties may be briefly summarized as follows: the numerous and conflicting agencies which may be employed in English training; the lack Of widely accepted standards in English; the language habits which are constantly being formed at home, on the streets and by the general out-of-school environ ment of pupils, much of which is liable to be at variance with best usage; the lack of a. Linguistic conscience on the part of so many men and women which has a reflex influence upon the English work of children. Poor teachers rely mainly upon mechanical methods of teach ing English which consume time and, while satisfying formal requirements of school programs, fail to bring about satisfactory results. No subject is more poorly adapted to mechanical methods than English. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons in English: Grammar and Composition The office of grammar in the elementary school is not so much to teach accuracy of speech, or of composition, as to aid learners to better understand what they read, and to give them the power to master the exact thought of any sentence. Besides this, it ought to be so taught as to develop and strengthen some special mental faculty. The method of this book recognizes the laws of mental growth and discipline. By orderly questioning in teaching the subjects, the pupil is induced to perform some mental effort - to examine, to compare, to classify, to reach conclu sions. When, as a result of observation and experience, the full import of a definition or rule is thoroughly understood, then, and not till then, is he required to commit it to memory.

This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Aids in Teaching English Grammar Composition and Spelling A year ago it was said that there has been no progress in the teaching of English in this part of the state during the past twenty years. There may be some truth in this statement. Progress for the many comes through the ability and efforts of the few. Leaders in any line of thought are few. There is but one Edison, one Marconi, one Henry Ford, and one Booker T. Washington; there was but one Columbus, one Lincoln, one Westinghouse, and one Grant. The same is true in the teaching of English, as it is in statesmanship, in war, and in industry. Progress for the mass of mankind, for teachers in general, and for teachers of English, comes by following leaders. There is no other way. The first step in progress in the teaching of English then is to determine who are the leaders, and the next is to become a student and follower of those leaders. Growth comes by effort. If we study the writings of the leaders and apply what they teach in our work, adapting it as best we can, we are making progress, provided we have chosen the right leaders. Who have been the leaders - the organizers - in the teaching of English in the elementary and secondary schools in the past several years? No doubt this is a question about which we might differ. The writer wishes to name Percival Chubb of New York, Barrett Wendell and Samuel Thurber of Harvard University, and Charles De Garmo now of Cornell University as leaders in the teaching of English. Mr. Chubb has published a book entitled. The Teaching of English; Mr. Wendell has a book entitled, English Composition; Mr. De Garmo has published his Language Lessons; and Mr. Thurber contributes articles on English to magazines. Carpenter's Composition and Rhetoric is a helpful text. It is clear in thought and statement. These publications are excellent - they are the best the writer has found. Then, if progress has not been made in this part of Wisconsin in the teaching of English, of late years, it is not the fault of these men, because they have been writing and publishing books for many years. There are other leaders in English, but the writer has found help in studying the writings of the above named men. They are full of life. Every teacher of English should become thoroughly acquainted with their writings. The short articles in this pamphlet are the results of the writer's studying the ideas of the men named above, along with others who have specialized in the teaching of English.
