Book excerpt: Excerpt from Suggested Reforms in Public Schools Many of the laws of health have, since Dr Arnold's time, been ascertained with scientific accuracy, and emphasised strongly by medical and scientific men; and many health reforms have without doubt lately been introduced into schools, as, indeed, has been the case in society generally. But these reforms have been, almost without exception, such as, by their introduction, brought with them no necessity for any change of habit, fashion, or tradition in the school.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Plays for School Children: As Developed by Teachers and Pupils in Public Schools of Greater New York Forty New York Public Schools were invited to com pete, a prize being given each day to the school making the most graphic presentation of the value of milk. Milk facts were presented in various ways, the informal play proving perhaps the most popular. On five days' notice, teachers in the public schools, building upon the facts in a pamphlet entitled Milk, the Master Carpenter, which is reprinted here, were able to make a splendid showing. What they did with out being health or dramatic experts, other teachers can do. Their success marks merely the beginning of a much wider use of the amateur health play. Though some of the authors were teachers of Domestic Science, many were grade teachers. All very generously donated their manuscripts, to make this book possible, and through it to give the plays to the country. Children love the dramatic form and the plays will be found useful in teaching the formation of health habits. The health lesson is made effective when the child who is living the Game of Health -is drinking milk and eating cereal, and fruit or green vegetables daily, sleep ing with windows open and bringing weight up to stand ard-takes in such plays a leading part.

This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Organized Health Work in Schools With an Account of a Campaign for School Hygiene in Minnesota In 1900 only 8 cities in America had any organized health work in schools. Since that time over 400 cities have organized departments for the health supervision of school children, and as Dr. Leonard P. Ayres remarks, "this development is without parallel in the history of education." To quote further from Dr. Ayres, "No school (in 1900) had ever heard of a school nurse, for no city in the world employed one; but to-day (1911) 76 American cities have corps of school nurses as permanent parts of their educational forces and 48 cities employ staffs of school dentists." A few years ago the public schools made no provision for the education of the blind, crippled, or mentally deficient, but now in New York City alone there are more than 100 classes for mentally peculiar children, while arrangements are rapidly making for the care of crippled and other classes of physically handicapped children. It was only as recently as 1909 that the first open-air school for tuberculous children was opened in Providence, but to-day such schools may be found in something over 40 cities. The special study of the mentally deficient child has engaged the attention of public school educators for a period of less than three years, but at present plans are rapidly making in many progressive towns and cities for the careful study of such children by the employment of exact psychological methods. All these facts indicate that the physical care of children is engaging the attention of the serious-minded school men. Yet, while all these facts are interesting and significant, it must not be forgotten that no uniform methods of health organization in schools have been evolved, and that there still exist the most widely divergent beliefs and practices in this respect. Health work in schools needs standardization. The experiences of cities already organized in school health matters ought to be studied by other places attempting such organization for the first time. In general it may be safely stated that schools receive what they pay for. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health Education in Rural Schools The winning of the war has long commanded the atten tion of the American people. Our resources have been spent lavishly to make secure our liberties and the freedom of the world. Such a supreme crisis in our history revealed inspir ing patriotism, but also a pathetic weakness in our citizens. Out of 06 men who were examined on the first draft, a vast army of men were rejected on physical grounds. A large proportion of these physical defects might have been corrected or prevented if the schools had been doing their part to train children to conserve and improve their health. Such a serious flaw in public education must challenge the efforts of educators throughout the land. Several States, realizing the gravity of the situation, have recently passed laws making physical education obligatory and requiring a more extensive and practical teaching of hygiene.' The war has compelled us to recognize, as we never did before, the fundamental importance of health education as preparedness, not only for military service, but also for happy and efficient participation in civil life. Contrary to tradition and popular belief, country children have been found to be as defective physically and in many cases more defective than city children. Comparatively little has been done so far for the health of country children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Ty gscope the marvels in a drop of dirty pond water, and who on Saturday excursions up the river could talk of the Trilobites and the Ortho ceratites, and explain the formation of the earth's crust. No more dry husks for me after such a diet, and early in my college life I kicked over the traces and exchanged the ciassics with divers as represented by Pearson, Browne, and Hooker, for Hunter, Lyell, and Huxley. From the study of nature to the study of man was an easy step. My experience was that of thousands, yet, as I remember, we were athirst for good literature What a delight it would have been to have had Chapman's Odyssey read to us, or Plato's Phaedo, on a Sunday evening, or the Vera Historia. What atragedy to climb Parnassus in a fog!

Download or read book What American Cities Are Doing for the Health of School Children written by Russell Sage Foundation Dept Hygiene and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from What American Cities Are Doing for the Health of School Children: Report Covering Conditions in 1038 Cities A little more than sixteen years ago, in 1894, and as a result of some serious epidemics among school children, the city of Boston divided its public schools into fifty districts and appointed fifty doctors to begin medical inspection in them. The Department of Child Hygiene of the Russell Sage Foundation has just completed an investigation to find out what progress has been made in this field in the sixteen years that have elapsed since this beginning. Medical inspection is an extension of the activities of the school in which the educator and the physician join hands to insure for each child such conditions of health and vitality as will best enable him to take full advantage of the free education offered by the state. Its object is to better health conditions among school children, safeguard them from disease, and render them healthier, happier, and more vigorous. It is founded on a recognition of the intimate relationship between the physical and mental conditions of the children, and the consequent dependence of education on health conditions. There are in this country some 1285 cities having organized systems of graded public schools under superintendents. The investigation covers these cities and returns have been received from 1038 or nearly 90 per cent of them. For the purposes of tabulating results, the several states of the Union have been divided into five groups, following the order adopted by the United States Census.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health and the School: A Round Table Recent years have witnessed notable advances in our comprehension of the conditions governing the health of children. We have been astonished at the number of defects found among them; we have received new convictions in regard to provision for air and play; and we have become acquainted with better methods for warding off disease. Nor is our attitude on this whole matter by any means so theoretical as it was even a few years ago. Indeed, the extent to which all this knowledge is nnding application, in communities of all sorts, is striking. Herbert Spencer's charge that people were generally far more interested in the health and general care of their horses, cattle, and hogs than in that of their children will hardly hold much longer. And it seems likely that good health will soon rank first, in the minds of teachers and parents, among the things that make up a good education. The realization of this promise will mark a revolution in the practice of the schools; for, in times past, they have really, if not consciously, sacrificed health for the acquisition of knowledge. Training institutions for teachers have even been among the worst offenders in this respect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Health Administration In general, the thought is that before we can say what the public schools are or should be doing for individual and public health we must determine as accurately as possible with present-day statistics what the health needs and problems of individuals and the nation actually are, and how serious the health problem is, compared with other grave problems of life. The public school's share in the responsibilities for public health amelioration is very great, and growing, due to the lack or ineficiency of other insti tutions for such a purpose, to the admirable conditions of control in a state institution and with compulsory attend ance and general community support, and to the fact that such a large share of health mal-adjustment is due to health ignorance, and the lack of adequate health habits and ideals which it is so largely the special function of the public school to replace with positive health qualities. The princi pal problems of life, whatever they may be, and to be discovered only by a study of life through surveys or any other efficient means, furnish the problems of public edu cation.

In the upper grades under the departmental plan the subject of teaching hygiene is almost entirely neglected.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Health of School Children: Statement of the Endeavors of the Board of Education to Conserve the Health of Children Under Its Care When one speaks of the schools of New York City, visions of great buildings containing thousands of children, situated in the congested parts of the city, come to mind. Public School 188, Man hattan, down on the lower East Side, has on its register pupils. Public School 84, Brooklyn, has on its register pupils. These enormous schools, embracing numbers equivalent to the population of a fair - sized village community, form, however, only one phase of the picture. Public School 121, Brooklyn, last winter had on its regis ter 36 pupils. The total number of principals, instructors, assistants, and the like was - one. Public School 7, Richmond, had 26 pupils on its roll; and in place of the 66 class-rooms in Public School 84, Brooklyn, it contained but one room, thus corresponding exactly to those village school buildings that have become so well known in the history of this country.
