Book Synopsis Collection of Poetry for School Reading (Classic Reprint) by : Marcus White
Download or read book Collection of Poetry for School Reading (Classic Reprint) written by Marcus White and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collection of Poetry for School Reading This collection of poems for school reading has been planned for children from ten to fifteen years of age. The compiler has long felt the need in his own schools of a book of modest size and price that should include the poems here brought together. They are for the most part old favorites, and they have proved themselves by actual test to be well fitted to give genuine pleasure to children, and, at the same time, to foster in them a growing appreciation of what is good in literature. The collection is by no means exhaustive, and is intended only to supplement the many admirable selections from English and American authors now prepared for school use. It is hoped, however, that this book may prove to be one which children will like to own for themselves, and that, instead of being read and then laid aside for something new, it may enjoy an intimate and enduring companionship with them.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graded Literature Readers School readers, which supply almost the only reading of many chil dren, should stimulate a taste for good literature and awaken interest in a wide range of subjects. In the Graded Literature Readers good literature has been presented as early as possible, and the classic tales and fables, to which constant allusion is made in literature and daily life, are largely used. Nature study has received due attention. The lessons on scientific subjects, though necessarily simple at first, preserve always a strict accuracy. The careful drawings of plants and animals, and the illustrations in color many of them photographs from nature will be attractive to the pupil and helpful in connection with nature study.

Book Synopsis School Reading by Grades by : James Baldwin
Download or read book School Reading by Grades written by James Baldwin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Reading by Grades: Second Year Tm; chief purpose of this volume, as of the others in the series, is to help the pupil learn to read; and to this object everything else is sub servient. Bearing in mind the fact that only those children who like to read ever become good readers, the author has endeavored so to construct and arrange the several lessons as to make each reading exercise a source of pleasure to all. The successive stories, poems, and other pieces have been chosen so as to present a varied succession of thoughts and images pleasing to the child - thus stimulating his interest from day to day, arousing his curiosity, directing his imagination, and adding to his store of knowledge. The gradation is as nearly perfect as possible, each lesson being but a little more difficult than that which precedes it. All new words that would be likely to offer the slightest difficulties to the learner are printed in the word lists at the beginning of the selection. Since each recitation must necessarily be short, all the longer pieces have been divided into parts - each part being sufficient in most cases for one lesson. This method obviates the objection usually made to long selections in books of this grede, and makes it possible to present in complete form several adaptations of productions that are by common consent recognized as classical. The constant trend of the lessons in all the volumes in this series is towards leading the learner, as soon as he is prepared for it, to a knowledge and appreciation of the best things in the permanent literature of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Years With the Poets; A Text-Book of Poetry: To Be Memorized by Children During the First Years in School IN recognition of the fact that there are already in existence various excellent collections of poetry for children, and that still another would therefore seem to be quite unnecessary, it is perhaps fitting that this little book should present itself with due apo logy for its existence. It might be better, however, to acknowledge frankly that this present volume does not claim to be a collection at all, in the ordinary sense of the word. Rather is it a text-book of poetry, limited in its scope by the needs and interests of the first school years, and aiming only to be an introduction to the real anthologies for children, the larger and more complete collections. It is hoped that it may serve as the first study book which a little child should be asked to use, and that as such it may correlate to advantage with the reading-books, and with the oral lessons in botany or history or geography of the lower primary grades.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graded Poetry Readers: Fourth Year Poetry is the chosen language of childhood and youth. The baby repeats words again and again for the mere joy of their sound: the melody of nursery rhymes gives a delight Which is quite independent of the meaning of the words. Not until youth ap proaches maturity is there an equal pleasure in the rounded periods of elegant prose. It is in childhood therefore that the young mind should be stored with poems Whose rhythm Will be a present delight and Whose beautiful thoughts will not lose their charm in later years. The selections for the lowest grades are addressed primarily to the feeling for verbal beauty, the recog nition of Which in the mind of the child is funda mental to the plan of this work. The editors have felt that the inclusion of critical notes in these little books intended for elementary school children would be not only superfluous, but, in the degree in Which critical comment drew the child's attention from the text, subversive of the desired result.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Poetry, in the High School There has lately been much criticism of the teaching of literature in the high school. It has been suggested, by those who have attempted to measure school work by its effect upon later life, that recent generations of high-school students have not gained all that they should from this study. They point out that we have been led to expect that twelve years of school contact with the best literature would establish an abiding interest in good reading; but we have found that high-school graduates, once they enter upon their life-work, give a surprisingly small part of: their leisure time to reading of any sort, and still less to reading the world's best literature. It may be that this unsatisfactory result is not altogether new; that the school, without being aware of the fact, has always partially failed in its teaching of literary content. The boys and girls of the Latin schools and academies of the past years represented a highly selected population. As compared with the high-school students of to-day, they came of a favored cultured class. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-05-10 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Garden Walks With the Poets Whatever may seem capricious in the selection is therefore to be ascribed to redundance and excellence of material. I should have been glad to make my book hold twice as many poems, and have left out not a few favorites, sorely against my will. The plan required that variety of topics and treatment should be a leading object, and this excluded some of the most charming flower-poetry. Then, again, some pieces of that kind had, from their very excellence, already found their way into every school reading-book, and it seemed superfluous to reprint them here. And more than all, the quantity of verses which I had supposed could be contained in a good-sized volume, proved so much beyond the capacity of any volume of tolerable proportions, that a great mass of dearly beloved poems were absolutely crowded out pell-mell; thus disturbing considerably the regular ar rangement at first contemplated. I think, however, there will be found something for all tastes, as well as for all seasons and I sincerely desire that my readers may enjoy Garden Walks with the Poets as much as I have.
