Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English Book One The chapter on Conversations about Books seeks to ih dicate a method for classroom discussions about the books prescribed for the work in literature. The authors believe that reading for pleasure is the chief aim of the literature work, and that the books should therefore be discussed from this point of view. They believe that the class dis eussions should be familiar conversations confined to topics of interest to young people. They would therefore leave the minute analysis of books for style and structure to the fourth high school year or to the college class. Such mi unties, if admitted at all, should be purely incidental. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English, Vol. 1 Language began long ago when man still lived a rough and-ready life in the open, and was forced to struggle for his existence against great odds. At first his language was very crude and Simple, but it meant something to him and to his fellows. He made himself understood by its use, and he was able to under stand others. Soon he must have had sounds for hunger, for terror that came through the eyes and through the ears, for pain through touch, for bad smells and for good. Each of the five senses had its group of sounds that carried meaning to woman whether she served in her rude home or assisted the man abroad. And as together they fitted sounds to the feelings of smooth and rough, and foul and sweet, language began to develop, and man came to express himself more perfectly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Literature in the High School In the face of these expert Opinions, it might seem, at first blush, presumptuous to discuss the matter of English at all, in connection with either high school or college. But not so. Even if literature cannot be taught, - and my experience inclines me to this opinion, - it certainly cannot be learned without the ability to read the written word. Moreover, the best literature cannot 'be read intelligently, and will not be-read at all by the majority, without proper introduction and guidance. In the matter of composition, certainly no man is regarded as fit for service in his community who cannot express his thoughts and desires in cor rect every-day English; and, though I say it that shouldn't, most college professors would be well satisfied with such ideal material! Even the last of the three apparent aspersions by no means eliminates the subject of English from discussion. For, even if the day ever comes when English is not required in the high school, it will always have a favorite place in the curri culum. Granted, then, that English shall continue to occupy a promi nent post in our educational institutions, it is eminently fitting that we should consider the relation between high school and col lege English. This question, strictly American, can best be answered in the truly American way, by asking several others: What are the principal aims in the teaching of English? With these ends in view, what should constitute the content of the course? How is this to be presented so as to bring about the desired results? As the college can but continue the work of the high school, I take, it that it will be sufficient to discuss these questions with special reference to the latter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elements of High School English The teacher of English in the high schools of to-day has varied and manifold duties. To the lessons in literature and written composition, which were the staple diet a decade ago, there must now be added persistent instruction in spelling, punctuation, grammar, and oral composition, all duly planned and graded for the secondary school. Furthermore, every well-ordered course in English must include some provision for dramatic effort in the classroom if the work in oral expression is to be given its full value. The present volume contains material for study and practice in all these divisions of the subject, arranged with a view to affording the pupil as much growth-giving exercise as possible, and to economizing the time and energy of the teacher. The subject matter for composition, both oral and written, has been carefully chosen with the design of securing interest, for much experience has convinced the writer that the value of such work is in exact proportion to the zest with which it is carried on.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A First Book in English for High Schools One of the reasons for the publication of A first book IN english is the belief On the part of the authors and the publishers that a better text of this kind is needed one that is thoroughly adapted to use in the majority of American high schools. To write such a book has been the purpose of the authors, who have brought to the work years of classroom experience in the teaching of English composition to pupils of the junior and the senior high school ages. Principles. Throughout the first book IN english the authors have kept clearly in mind the fundamental problems of English com position: (i) The problem of something to speak or write about; (2) the problems of gathering, evaluating, and organizing material; (3) the problems of expressing thoughts correctly, clearly, sincerely, and pleasingly; and (4) the problem of adapting what is spoken or written to a definite audience or to a definite body of readers. An ex amination of the lessons in this book will Show that these fundamentals have been made basic considerations. Nowhere in the book is there a discussion of the principles of unity, coherence, and emphasis as such. At the same time, the habit of ex pressing unified thoughts coherently and with emphasis is fixed through practice. The pupil learns to present unified, coherent, well-emphasized thoughts by learning through practice to express thoughts that he has first carefully selected, organized, and evaluated. The young pupil should not be confused with abstractions. He must learn by doing. Throughout the book the developing interests and abilities of boys and girls are carefully gauged and considered.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The High School Course in English While the plan of the work has been made as ﬂexible as possible in order to adapt it to different schools, it has seemed desirable to indicate definitely how all of the details of the course should be organized and what methods should be used to bring about the required results. The object has been to consider the purpose of each part of the English work, and to show as specifically as possible what must be done and to some extent how it must be done to accomplish this purpose. By having a' definite aim for each year's work and by seeing clearly what is to be accomplished in each part of the subject, the teacher of English feels responsible for the successful completion of a specific part of the course. At the same time the originality and ability of the teacher need not be ham pered by a definite plan but may be exercised in adapting the work to different conditions in different schools and classes. In discussing the course in English, the general aim and methods in teaching the important elements, composition and reading, are taken up first, and then the particular phases of each subject to be presented in each year, are considered. What is presented under the general topics, reading and com position, therefore, applies to the work of each year unless otherwise stated, and usually is not repeated in considering {each year of the course.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English, Vol. 2 Comparison of the tables of contents of Books I and II of the High School English series reveals at once a similarity of plans and a close correlation of materials and assignments. Book II is a direct outgrowth on a higher level of the ninth-grade text; it strengthens and complements the work of the earlier book as well as provides a stepping stone to activities of the junior and senior years. Nor does this cor relation begin and end with the two books, for attention is drawn constantly, not only to the importance of English in itself as a means to social and cultural enjoyment, but also to the importance of the mastery of English as a basis for all other work. The study of English is the study of the means of oral and written communication. The purpose, therefore, of Book II, like that of its predecessor, Is to lead high school students to a keener appreciation and mastery of Purpose written and spoken expression. The problem has been to secure the most adequate means to this end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from English in the High School, And, What to Teach in Poetry The fourth aim suggested is to develop in the pupil a fuller appreciation of good literature and increasing appreciation of the fullness of life. This aim is frequently lost sight of by the teacher of composition. To be sure, it can not be measured as easily as the three aims just considered. But if composi tion is taught successfully the pupil will appreciate more fully the great masterpieces, and he will see new meaning in life and in external nature. The mere fact that he can construct a good sentence or paragraph will help him to value aright the sentence and paragraph structure of Macaulay and Stevenson. So also a description of a character from life or of some phase of external nature, and the narration of events that happen every day, will increase his interest in the world in which he lives. Writing about things gives one a fuller realization and appreciation of the things themselves. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from High School English, Vol. 3 High School English, Books III and IV, like the earlier books in the series, are built upon three sound educational principles: (1) that the greater part of progress is the desire to progress; (2) that learning is an active process in volving doing as a necessary step toward mastery; and (3) that all learning is built upon past experiences. With these guides, Books III and IV complete a closely knit and carefully planned program of English work for the high school, strengthening the knowledge and skills of the earlier years and leading in a spiral movement of ever-widening circles to greater understanding and mastery of spoken and of written expression that will meet the increasing de mands of the more mature student in his everyday life both in class and in outside activities. The contents of Book III may be divided into four classes (i) the tools of expression, (2) experiences in the more usual activities, (3) helps for extracurricular activities and for leisure time, and (4) self-testing.

The teacher should always bear in mind that no pupil can write until he has something to say, a fact which has been kept constantly in view in the presentation of the constructive work contained in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of High School English: June, 1914 Makers of high school courses of study and high school teachers have not been unmindful of these considerations. More of the pupils' time during the high school period is devoted to English than to any other subject, and this independent of the fact that every recitation is, in a sense, a recitation in English. In the large academic high schools there are more teachers of English than of any other subject. How far the results of the teaching justify the time and energy expended is not easily determined. It is not to be denied that results are not always what either the public or the teachers themselves could wish. In this connection there should be taken into account the forces at work outside of school which impair the results of English teaching, and which seriously handicap the work of teachers in this subject as the work of no other body of high school teachers is handicapped. Some of these forces are the prevailing low standards of spoken English in many homes and in many communities, the dislike of a large number of pupils for written composition of any sort, their inability to see the relation of good English to the practical affairs of the world, and the enormous amount of cheap periodical matter which the news stands offer in tempting colors or pictorial adornment to old and young alike.
