Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pacific Nature Stories, Vol. 2 The aim of this volume is to give specific information on typical objects of nature that illustrate the outdoor life of the Pacific Slope. The teacher will not find in the book all about fishes, but a study of "The Story of the Salmon" will furnish a method for the young ichthyologist. The other stories also tend to form a basis for systematic study. If we are to teach science in the schools, the children should be started right. The books that give vague and general information are really vicious. These stories are presented in this form to meet a demand and fill a place that existed. The writer made over one thousand visits, during the past few years, to grammar-grade schools, and took a keen interest in the nature, or science, work. It is with some degree of confidence, therefore, that he hopes the teachers will find this volume helpful in the middle grades. All knowledge should begin with the facts with which the child is familiar. The poppy, the nugget, the coyote, the bear, the quail, and the raisin are not strangers to our boys and girls. It remains for the teacher to train the children to study them on a scientific basis. I am indebted to David Starr Jordan, and A. C. McClurg A & Co., for permission to use "The Story of the Salmon." To T. S. Van Dyke, and Fords, Howard & Hulbert, for "The Quail" and "A Glance at Birds." To Edward Hyatt, of Riverside, for "The Study of Ants."
