Excerpt from Grammar School Book This Grammar School Arithmetic is noteworthy for the topics which it omits, as well as for the new topics which it introduces. A dominant fea ture is the emphasis upon vocational problems. These problems are of wide range, drawn from life on a farm, in the home, in the carpenter's shop, the manufacturing establishment, and the clerk's office in the city. It is hoped that these vocational problems will be of genuine value to the pupil after he leaves the school and enters into one or another of the various fields of activity.

Excerpt from The English Grammar Schools to 1660: Their Curriculum and Practice The object of this book is to present an account of the development of the teaching in the English Grammar Schools from the time of the Invention of Printing up to 1660. It is a history of the practice of the schools, of their curricula, and of the differentiated subjects of instruction, in distinction from the history of the theories of educational reformers as to what ought to be taught, and how existing methods might be improved. The basis of the work is therefore bibliographical. It has been impossible, within the space at disposal, to include a statement of all the bibliographical detail, on which the generalisations are based, but, throughout, the attempt has been made to describe really representative documents and school text-books. The study of English educational history has not hitherto included much consideration of the old school text-books used in the 16th and 17th centuries. Yet this seems to be the safest way of securing a sound basis for the study of the school practice of the times. It will be evident how much use has been made of the Ludus Literarius (1612 and 1627) of John Brinsley and the New Discovery of the Old Art of Teaching School of Charles Hoole (1660).This has been the more necessary because as yet there are no reprints of those outstanding historical documents of 17th century school work.

Excerpt from The Modern Grammar-School Reader (Illustrated) The elements of good reading are found in these principles, and every teacher is earnestly recommended to make them subjects of special attention. Let the drill on the elementary sounds be so thorough that every pupil can utter each sound distinctly, and can give the letter and mark which represent it. The work on emphasis, inflection, etc., is only suggestive. Only enough exor cises are given on these subjects to furnish a brief exposition of the principles, and it is the business of the teacher to see that the pupil makes an application of these principles in the daily recita tion.

Excerpt from New Grammar School History of the United States In that year N arvaez (nar - vali'-eth), excited by Pineda's ac counts of the Mississippi Indians and their golden orna ments, set forth with 400 men to conquer the north coast of the Gulf of Mexico. At Apalachee Bay he landed, and made a raid inland. On returning to the shore, he missed his ships, and after traveling westward on foot for a month, built five rude vessels, and once more put to sea. For six weeks the little eet hugged the shore, till it came to the mouth of the Mississippi, where two of the boats were upset and Narvaez was drowned. The rest reached the coast of Texas in safety. But famine and the tomahawk soon reduced the number of the survivors to four. These were captured by bands of wan dering Indians, were carried over eastern Texas and western Louisiana, till, after many strange adventures and vicissitudes, they met beyond the Sabine River.1 Protected by the fame they had won for sorcery, and led by one Cabeza de Vaca, they now wandered westward to the Rio Grande 2 (ree'-o grahn'-da) and on by Chihuahua (chee-wah'-wah) and Sonora to the Gulf of California, and by this to Culiacan, a town near the west coast of Mexico, which they reached in 1536. They had crossed the continent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Grammar School Boys in the Woods: Or Dick Co, Trail Fun and Knowledge "Any more questions?" inquired Principal E. Button Jones, more familiarly known to the students of the Central Grammar School as "Old Dut." He stood before the boy and girl pupils of the eighth grade. For twenty minutes he had been talking on the matter of physical geography. This afternoon the subject had been the movements of the sun and moon with reference to the earth. On the desk before the principal stood an apparatus that he was never tired of exhibiting, but which often bored the Grammar School boys and girls. At the center of this apparatus was a gilded ball representing the sun - stationary. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from A Grammar-School History of the United States The division and arrangement of paragraph, chapter, and section have been carefully made. The headings of paragraphs are given in heavy type, that teachers may be assisted in topical recitations. The dates are placed in the margin, and only those of prominent events are introduced into the text, in order that the student's mind may not be unnecessarily burdened. The pronunciation of a difficult proper name is given the first time such a word occurs; and a brief explanation follows each new term when it is introduced.

Excerpt from Grammar School Arithmetic It is hoped that young teachers will derive great advantage from studying the systematic arrangement of the arithmetical work, for such attention has been paid to this as the limitation of the page would allow. It is also expected that many teachers, who are pressed for time, will find great relief by not being obliged to work out every problem in the Arithmetic.
