Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Elementary Course of Study in Literature for Grammar Grades In comparison with arithmetic, grammar, language work, and other subjects, the grammar grade literature course has received but scanty constructive attention in the last few years. Many subjects have been, at least partially, clarified as to their purposes, content, and method; but this has been allowed to remain tangled and obscure. This is not fair to the subject; nor is it fair to the school-supporting public whose faith in the efficacy of teacherdom should move all teachers to the most earnest scrutiny in forming courses of study. Worst of all, it is not fair to the boys and girls. To their development our schools must minister. Their welfare demands the most scrupulous care in the selection of what our schools should teach. And if all this were not ground for a careful overhauling of the course in literature, a new portent appears to stimulate the undertaking: there is a strong and growing discontent with our school work in literature. To what end is it designed! On what rational basis is its system of method founded? Why do we find in this latter day that many of our boys, - school boys, - hate to read and our girls become perverts in reading? Why are the great poems and stories of the race less well known by school graduates than they were fifty years ago? Why is the appreciation of poetry becoming a cult for a caste rather than a joyful experience for all? These questions in various forms may no longer be denied, - if for no better reason than because of their importunity. It is a fair and pertinent business, therefore, to pause for a moment in the making of courses of study in literature and to examine the state of that subject as it now reveals itself in our schools. Traditional Content of the Literature Course. At the present time, literature under that name is generally found in the seventh and eighth grades. During these years certain poems and prose selections are introduced with an object apparently different from that pursued in framing the reading course of the lower grades.
