A Nature Study Reader For The Philippine Islands Illustrated PDF Download

Excerpt from Nature Study Reader for the Philippine Islands Success in Nature Study, more than in most other subjects, must depend upon the work of the teacher. The following chapters are very simple in treatment, and previous training in botany on the part of the teacher is not at all essential, yet their use as a reading text alone is not the thing expected. The pupils should make almost constant use of a note-book and pencil. The plants described have been chosen chie y on account of their familiarity and availability throughout the Islands, and the pupils should make their sketches directly from nature. They seem to take consid erable pride in the preparation of such a Nature Study note-book, and it is the best aid to accurate observation. The teacher can easily extend the range of topics studied. The thirty chapters should not be exhausted in less than sixty or seventy lessons. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
