Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Course of Study in Civics: Grades One to Six, for the Public Schools of Philadelphia The purpose of the course of study in civics is to give the child such instruction and training as will help to make him a good citizen. The aim of the course is therefore both immediate and remote. The course recognizes the child as a young citizen, a member of various communities such as the home, the school, the neighborhood, the city, the state and the nation, and aims to develop such habits and ideals as will make for right conduct and relationship as a young citizen. It also recognizes in the child the future adult citizen with wider duties and obligations, and aims in part to bring about such a development as will make for good and efficient citizenship in the years to come. The question may very properly be raised as to who is the good citizen. The good citizen may be defined as the one who habitually conducts his own affairs with proper regard for the welfare of the communities of which he is a member, and who is active and intelligent in his co-operation with his fellow members for the common good. This is an ideal not to be attained in the few short years of the elementary school. It must also be kept in mind that the child can be expected only in a small way to measure up to the standard of the adult citizen, but that he may be truly a good citizen as a child, gaining gradually in knowledge and power, and moving toward the fullness of perfection in citizenship. Effective training for good citizenship must begin even before the child enters school, and must continue through life. The influence which the school may exercise upon the home by bringing before it ideals which should be potent in producing an atmosphere that will make for this early training is very great. The school should lose no opportunity which presents itself for the rendering of this service. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
