Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Fourth Reader The Fourth Reader stage should be marked by a distinct increase in power, and a distinct broadening of interest and understanding. For a well-taught boy or girl of ten or eleven, words and phrases occurring in the reading lesson have come to serve as means to an end rather than as ends in themselves; merely mechanical difficulties have begun to disappear; to a greater extent than at any previous period there is space for attention to literary and ethical values. There is also at this stage a widening view of the world, and there must be a widening range of subjects, of characters, and of situations. To this stage these words of Herbart are especially applicable: "The whole look of a well-trained boy is directed above himself, and ... his entire line of vision extends beyond all histories of children. Present to the boy, therefore, such men as he himself would like to be." Such are the men and women whose deeds and characters are presented in this book. The Horace Mann Fourth Reader is an open air book, in the spirit of Walt Whitman´s "I think heroic deeds were all conceived in the open air."
