Manual Methods Of Sunday School Teaching PDF Download

Excerpt from Manual Methods of Sunday-School Teaching: With Full Directions and Photographs of Work Executed by Sunday-School Pupils No more earnest educationalists are to be found to-day than Sunday-school teachers. As a class they are more than ever dissatisfied with the results of their efforts. Not because they are doing poorer work than used to be the case. Sunday-school teachers, as a whole, never did their work so well. But theirs is the pious discontent of seeking the best ways and means. They want to borrow of one another. And they want the benefit of the larger experience of their fellow teachers of the school world, particularly in regard to methods of teaching history and literature. For such inquiring Sunday-school teachers these pages have been prepared. What is offered has been learned on the floors of an elementary school and a large variety of Sunday-schools in city, town and country. It has been learned, such as it is, with the help of many able Sunday-school teachers, some of whom know more about Sunday-school than day-school practice, and others more about the practice of day-schools than of Sunday-schools. There is nothing herein laid down which has not stood a practical, if not a protracted, test, in both kinds of schools. Both theory and practice are cited. They are supported by photographs of products of manual work of Sunday-school pupils and of some of them engaged in the operations recommended. It is hoped that what is submitted will be of practical assistance to those in quest of directions for manual methods in Sunday-school teaching, and that students of religious education will find the ideas suggestive.
