Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Beginner´s History of Our Country The Beginner´s History of Our Country, as its title indicates, is designed to introduce the study of American history. The underlying idea throughout the book is adaptation to the nature and needs of the child. Some distinctive features of the plan may here be noted. In the first place, unlike some primary histories in common use, this is not an abridgment of a larger history. To attempt, within the narrow limits of a primary textbook, to present all of the events of our national life that are commonly considered important from the adults standpoint, would be to reduce the narrative to little more than a catalogue of names and dates. Moreover, some subjects embraced in our country´s history are absolutely beyond the comprehension of an immature mind. To require the young pupil to memorize statements upon such subjects is nothing short of a pedagogical crime. On the other hand. The Beginner´s History of Our Country is not a story book. It is not made up of disconnected biographies of a few great Americans. Even in this early stage of his school life it is deemed important that the pupil gain a connected view - incomplete though it be - of his country´s continuous life and progress.
