Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from First Steps in English Composition for Grammar and High Schools, Seminaries and Colleges: A New and Original Method Based on Class-Room Experience It may be said - and probably with entire safety - that English composition is the most difficult subject which the grammar or high school teacher, or the college professor, finds himself called upon to teach; compared with Algebra, Physics or Latin, it is so lacking in system, so grievously without progressive or inductive method. Many books have been put forth and many suggestions have been made to aid the teacher of English in his work. All have been of value; our work is improving from year to year; and within the last decade especially, much progress in our teaching has been made. The advance in our ideals is most apparent when we note the inceasing clearness with which teachers see that composition-writing is a practical matter, and that, consequently, their first duty is to have their pupils write. Indeed, it is coming to be felt that considerable such practice should be preliminary even to the more formal study of grammar and rhetoric. When I say that the present little book furnishes the matter and the method for such a course of work, I define at once its scope and its limits. It is in no way intended to compete with any of the numerous texts in grammar and rhetoric that are already in the field; it aims merely to precede them, or, at most, to furnish material for practical work that shall go along parallel with them. But this is not the place to discuss methods of teaching English. The introduction to this book is, in a sense, also its preface.
