Book excerpt: Excerpt from Regulations of the Education Department Respecting Public and High Schools and Collegiate Institutes, 1885 Literature - It is important that the pupils in all the classes should be required regularly to commit to memory selected passages in prose and verse, to give the meaning Of what they read, and to make, from time to time, a summary of the reading lessons, in their own language. Arithmetic - Systematic training in mental Arithmetic should prevail in all the classes. Accuracy and expertness in performing elementary operations are of the first importance. Problems based on the elementary rules should be given from the commencement. Great stress should be laid on the solution of questions by the Analytic Method. Writing - Neat and legible writing, and the proper formation of the small and capital letters should be aimed at. Geography - The School House and its surroundings, with which the pupils are familiar, should be taken as the first subjects of lessons to give correct ideas of boundary and direction. Map drawing should be practised from the beginning. Definitions in Physical Geography should be fully illustrated in all cases by blackboard drawings or otherwise. The teacher Should teach this subject in the first and second classes by means of familiar talks about the natural phenomena of different countries, the peculiarities of different races, the birds and animals of different zones, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
