"V/ <^/ Cv ATLANTIC, IOWA. ;- ^^o^iiijxr^v \^ LAFE YOUNG, BOOK AND JOB PRINTER., 1875. h - Entered according to Act of CougrcsS; in the year 1875, BY GEORGE S, WEDGWOOD, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington , PREFACE. The object aimed at in the preparation of this book was to place in the hands of the pupils a synopsis of the principal topics to which they should pay special attention in the preparation of their lessons, and to have these .topics so connected that they may be easily learnrd and retained. The necessity for such a plan has been long apparent from the many failures made in teaching these branches, as witnessed in a lar^e majority of our schools. Take, for instance, the study of History. How many teachers have labored hard and long trying to ''get through the book" with a class, only to find on examination that very few, if any, of the pupils could relate, either orally or in writing, in language not borrowed from the text book (and few even in that) the history of any important period of campaign ! Why is this, if not because too much time has been spent n mem"orizing unimportant m.ttter? and that, too, so discon- nected that the first part of the story was forgotten before the last was learned. iv PREFACE. Place the text book alone iii the hands of the teacher and in too many cases questions from the margin of the pages are <'shot at" the class and answers as quickly returned, and on examination jov will find that the students (and perhaps the teacher) are using language, half of which they have no more idea of the meaning of, than so much Greek. Take the text book away from the scholars, and teacher too, during the time of recitation; assign the lessons by topics; let the pupils use the text books tor reference in pre- paring their lessons and require the recitations to be both oral and written and it will not be long before the pupils will find it easier to use language with which they are acquainted and to have the facts connected in the order in which they occurred. There will be no difiiculty about the dates; and the teacher will soon be ashamed to come before her class unprepared to lead tiiem rather than bo dragged along by them . The same may be said of Geography. There is probably more time loasted in the stndy of Geography than there is spent profitably. We need more blackboard work; more map-drawing; more learning where important cities, rivers, railroads, moun- tains, &c., are and why they are important^ and less search- ing for minor details and less important places that have nothing about them to recommend them to the mind of the child. Why our Primary Geographies take the young child to every nook and corner of the old world and leave him \\\ com- parative ignorance of his own State and country is a mystery. Good wall maps with text books for reference in preparing PREFACE. V the lessons, and an analysis ot the more important topics from, which to assign them, seems more in harmony with the limited time in which a large majority ot jur children have to procure their knowledge of Geography. Another imjjortant feature of this work is, that it solves the question so often asked, "How can we arrive at a uniformity ot text-books?" The answer is, "We can never accomplish it." There are so many good text-books on every branch of sludy that a uniformity extensive etjough to be of any prac- ticable good will never be arrived at; nor is such a change desirable. All the text-books in the world cimiot change the impor- tant tacts of history. They cannot cause Chicago and London to exchange places, nor can they change the causes of their importance. They cannot make the veins perform tho work assigned to the arteries. The princ;[*al difference between any two good text-books on the same branch of study is in the style of writing, and the methods of presenting the sub- jects to the student. These differences we need for the sake of comparison. One scholar will readily understand the lan- guage of the one while another will quickly catch the mean- ing by the plan laid down by the other. The leading topics are the same in all. Why not then place the analysis of the topics m the hands ot each pupil; have the lessons assigned and recited from it, while the text-books are used for reference in preparing the lessons for recitation? If this plan is cor- rect, the greater the variety of good text-books in the school the better. It may not be out of place here, especially for the benefit vi PREFACE. of those teachers who have not been in the habit oi teaching by topics, to give some advice in regard to the manner of conducting a recitation. No general rule can be laid down to apply to all classes; the teacher should study the general plan and apply it to her school according to the circum- stances. The class in question is one in History and numbers twenty scholars. The lesson is "Jackson's Administiation.' The class is divided into two sections. Monday, section I. will place on the board the work indicated in the topical analysis on that subject v^hile each member of section II. will prepare fifteen questions in writing on the same lesson. When the class is called to recite, section I. goes to the board without books and section II. exchange question papers with each other and answer them in turn, each scholpr is required to be able to answer his own questions, and by exchanging, his ability to answer other questions on the lesson prepared by his classmates is tested. A teacher who has not tried this plan will be surprised at the amount of inte» est manifested by the class in preparing worthy questions. The work of answering thequestions will occupy about twenty minutes; then ten minutes are allowed the class to correct errors at the board. Tuesday, this work is alternated, section 11. going to the board while section I. prepare questions — taking the same lesson as on Monday. In a small class it might be well to let all the scholars work at the board one day and prepare questions the next day. This is but one of many interesting methods of conduct- ing recitations with the aid of topical analysis. PREFACE. vii Hoping that this work may prove valuable in the school room and meet with criticisms enough to bring it to the notice of the public, it is respectfully submitted. G. S. W.
