Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of History in the Elementary: Schools Report to the American Historical Association The effects of the report of the Committee of Seven pre sented to the American Historical Association (1898) are well known. A member of that committee prepared a re port on the study of history in the elementary schools which has not received the attention it deserves. Besides giving an excellent summary of the conditions under which his tory was then taught, Miss Lucy M. Salmon outlined a six year course of study which was thought suitable for the ele mentary schools of the country. In grades three and four the biographies of great men were to be presented. Ele mentary Ancient History; Mediaeval and Modern History; English History; and American History were recommended for the succeeding grades.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from America First: One Hundred Stories From Our Own History When children advance beyond the nursery age, no story is so wonderful as a true story. Fiction to them is never as appealing as fact. I have often been faced with the inquiry: whether or not a story is a true one. The look of gratification, when told that it actually happened, was most satisfying to me as a story-teller. The nearer a story is to the life and traditions of the child, the more eagerly it is attended. True stories about our own people, about our neighbors and friends, and about our own country at large, are more interesting than true stories of remote places and people. We naturally are interested in our own affairs, and the nearer they are to us the greater the interest we feel.

Download or read book Studies in American History Classic Reprint written by Mary Sheldon Barnes and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-27 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in American History Not only is there this dramatic advantage, as we may call it, in the use of the source, but it has the further advantage of giving historic training from the very start. In using the sources, the pupil must do his own feeling and thinking; no one tells him that Drake was a pirate, or that the last days of Columbus were pathetic and bitter with ingratitude; he has the chance to see these things for himself; his Opinions are formed, his sympathies aroused, by the nearest possible contact with the man and the deed. In this way, the use Of the source has a vast advantage over the mere reading of a narrative. The use of the source means the use of one's faculties upon it, and beside it the reading of a narrative is but passive work. In the latter case, the work is already done; the sources alone give one a chance to study history rather than to read it, and to interpret it according to the light of his own time. The narrative is like a painted curtain before the drama of life which you behold in the sources. But in that very drama we must train our children to play their part.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Study of History in Schools: Report to the American Historical Association by the Committee of Seven An investigation of the subject of history, as it is studied and taught in the secondary schools, presents many difficulties. Even before the com mittee began seriously to consider what work was to be done, it became apparent that only a thorough study would be profitable, that general conclusions or recommendations, even on such a question as that of college entrance requirements, could not be made without an examination 'of the whole field and a consideration of many fundamental princi ples, or without ascertaining what was now domg in the high schools and academies of the country.

Download or read book The Essential Facts of American History written by Lawton B. Evans and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Essential Facts of American History: Revised Edition This book represents the author's effort to make the history of our country interesting to school children, and therefore easily taught and long remembered. The child has been kept in mind at every stage of the writing, for by the test of his ability to understand and his interest to learn will the usefulness of the book be measured. Therefore the text touches the history of the United States in its great epochs only. The author confesses before his critics accuse, that many facts and figures have been omitted as unnecessary to the story of our national establishment. Those incidents that were not influential in the development of our country should be reserved for a larger text and a more mature inquiry. Herein the child need not be bewildered by that multiplicity of detail that often has perplexed his mind and confused his memory. The author has purposely avoided an encyclopedic gathering of historical facts loosely connected by chronological sequence. Instead he has chosen a topical treatment of the great facts of our history, hoping that he may place an emphasis upon those things a child should know and can remember. To that end the chapters are in themselves units, and each represents some significant idea of value. That the author has made each chapter short and the treatment terse should commend itself to those who have to do with the daily routine of the schoolroom.
