Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from One Hundred Lessons in Nature Study: Around My School This little book is not intended to be in any sense a treatise on nature study. It does not pretend to be anything more than a collection of one hundred suggestive lessons on natural objects, such as have been given in the public school at Chatham, New Jersey, during the past two years. It will be observed that these lessons are not classified in any iron-clad order, nor are they arranged with any reference to scientific sequence. This apparent absence of classification is introduced for a purpose, i.e., it fulfils more truly the natural method of acquiring knowledge. The author has found during many years experience that when nature study is fitted into rigid rules as to what, when, how, etc., it becomes very soon little else than so many pages of some text-book in the teachers hands. In nature study there should be the utmost liberty of choice given to the teacher and pupil, one condition only being required, namely, that a certain definite period be given regularly to the study of some natural object ox phenomenon. Comenius said: "Knowledge of things near at hand should be acquired first, then that of those farther off." Taking this maxim as a keynote, the author has endeavored to present only such lessons as can be given in any school outside of large cities: Beginning (1) with things which can be studied in the school-house and grounds, selected by teacher and pupils; proceeding (2) to things farther away from the school.
