Hygiene For Young People PDF Download

Excerpt from Hygiene for Young People: A Reader for Pupils in Form III, of the Public Schools This book is intended as a health reader for pupils of ten or eleven years of age. It is assumed that those who study it will have previously received, as provided by the school programme of study, a series of oral lessons in physiology and hygiene, somewhat similar to those indicated in the author's little book, "Introductory Physiology and Hygiene," Parts I, II, and III. The Introductory book consists of a series of lessons, most of which were taught to public school children in presence of the teachers-in-training at the Kingston Model School, during the session of 1904. In it, emphasis was laid upon anatomy and physiology as the proper basis for understanding hygiene, but the instruction in hygiene was limited to sets of rules which were placed at the end of each chapter. It was expected that teachers would express these rules in simple language, write them upon the blackboard and that pupils would learn them by heart.
