Quotations And Select Stories For Opening Exercises In Schools PDF Download

Excerpt from Quotations and Select Stories for Opening Exercises in Schools This question has been asked by many teachers. 'attempts to answer it suggested the preparation of this little book. Froebel says: The story brings forward other people, other relations, other times and places, other and quite different forms; notwithstanding this fact the auditor seeks his own image, he sees it, yet no body can say to him, 'it is your own image.' Much care has been taken to select such stories as will show the pupil his better self and impress him with it. Stories that. Suggest the bad have been left out of this book. They are believed to be harmful, because they often suggest the doing of bad things the boy never would have thought of had he not read it in the story. It is thought best to present these stories and selec tions without remarks from the compiler. A teacher may, with profit, make each selection the basis of an informal talk with the pupils, not at them. There has been no attempt made to grade the selections, as most of them, with a slight modification, that any teacher can make, may be used in any grade.
