Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography, in Elementary Schools In the teaching of geography, as in instruction of every kind, the fundamental condition for success is that the teacher has so thoroughly mastered the subject himself, and takes so much real interest in it, that he can speak to his pupils about it, not in the set phrases of a class book, but out of the fullness of his own knowledge, being quick to draw his most effective illustrations from the daily experience of those to whom he addresses himself.

Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography, History and Civics This monograph discusses the teaching of History, Geography and Civics in the elementary schools. It contains a course of study in each of these subjects. While these are treated separately, they are all parts of the one general subject, Social Studies. An attempt has been made to establish a relationship between the three. These subjects are of great value. They are, after Reading, among the most useful in the common school curriculum. They have a direct relation to good citizenship - the great purpose of the schools - as few other subjects have. Their study is neces sary if we recognize the importance of man's relation to his fellows. They furnish abundant life, which is not their sole practical value but is a part of their value. They are full of interest and content as no other subjects are, literature alone excepted. T'hey furnish resources for the use of leisure time. If well taught, they inspire patriotism, appreciation of one's country, and recognition of one's obligation to serve it. They cultivate, if well taught, tolerance, imagination and judgment. They make large demands upon the teacher. The wider her reading, the more she has studied, the more she has traveled, the larger her vision, so much the better teacher will she be, pro vided she does not talk too much in recitations - the temptation of the teacher, particularly in these subjects. If she knows how to get work from pupils, if she has a positive enthusiasm for the worth of geography, history and civics, and can make this enthusiasm contagious, the results of her teaching can be no other than to make some community and neighborhood of the future a better community and neighborhood for men, women and children to live in because she has been a teacher there.

Excerpt from The Teaching of Geography in Elementary Schools This little book is an attempt to apply the newer conceptions of Geography to teaching in elementary schools. It in no way aims at being original in its treatment of the subject itself: for these we are indebted to the body of geographers who have during the last few years revolutionized the conception of the subject, in particular to Mr. H. J. Mackinder and Dr. A. J. Herbertson, to whose works frequent reference is made in the following pages. We felt, however, that in regard to the teaching of Geography in elementary schools, the central idea for which they are struggling - that Geography is, above all things, the examination of the effect of natural agencies on human affairs - is not yet sufficiently recognized and acted upon, and our aim is to throw out some suggestions as to changes in the teaching which we believe would help the better realization of this idea. In the case of branches of the subject which have only recently come into prominence, we have given some outline of the subject-matter to serve as an introduction of them to readers to whom they may be unfamiliar, and have added information as to sources from which information may be obtained. In the Index the pages where subjects are treated most fully have been printed in black type. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
