The Kindergarten System Its Origin And Development As Seen In The Life Of Frederick Froebel PDF Download

Excerpt from The Kindergarten System: Its Origin and Development as Seen in the Life of Friedrich Foebel, Translated and Adapted From the Work of Alexander Bruno Hanschmann for the Use of English Kindergarden Students I have often wished to hand on to other students the benefit I myself derived from the reading of Hanschmann's Life of Froebel, for I know no other piece of Froebel literature that presents so complete an account of the progress and development of Froebel's educational thought. I think it is a good thing for the student to see how, in his search for a scientific basis for the education of man, Froebel turns from the unpreparedness of the school-boy back to the earliest period of infancy, thence to the mother, and finally to the maiden, some day to become a mother. It is also an excellent lesson for the young teacher to watch the care and conscientiousness with which this born educator prepares himself for his office. It was my sense of its value that led me to obtain Mr. Hanschmann's permission to translate the book. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
