Excerpt from The Nature-Study Review, Vol. 1: Devoted to All Phases of Nature-Study in Elementary Schools; January, 1905 For the first four years of school, that is, throughout the pri mary period, nature-study and geography are practically identical. Theoretically, however, we may distinguish home lore from a geographic treatment of the home and its surroundings. Above the fourth grade nature - study and geography diverge in practice, although to make the most of both subjects, lessons in one should be arranged as far as possible with reference to lessons in the other. Nature - study calls for action on the part of the pupil. He should discover the meaning of facts for himself, and not ordi marily go to the teacher or to books. His own experience should form the basis of what he acquires. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
