Book excerpt: Excerpt from Child's Geography and History of St. Louis City In order to follow the requirements of our manual, it will doubtless be found necessary to give Third Grade classes, drills in the General Questions concerning the state, before entering on the chapter - Navigation on the Mississippi. It has been proposed that this book be used in the fourth quarter of the Second Grade, that on taking up the work of the Third Grade, pupils may be accustomed to the reading of the lessons. The teacher will be the best judge as to the ability of the pupil to take in "Navigation on the Mississippi and Railroads" before obtaining the required information concerning their State. Motions of the earth should be taught by means of a small globe. Definitions of natural divisions may be given as dictation exercises to be copied from the board. The Fourth Grade, requiring United States in outline, bring i the questions given under General Review. The teacher should select those she deems most suitable. The Fourth Grade should be provided with a map of the United States showing the principal railroads. By this means the various places to be reached from their own city may be traced, and the manner of travel described. The thirty-six squares of a township should be drawn by pupils in Second Grade by east and west, north and south lines. The map of the city should be drawn in parts according as the class becomes acquainted with the various localities, then the map of the State, and finally of the United States tracing the work from pupil's own State. Next map drawing should be that of North America, with review of the work previously learned. The Miscellaneous Questions may be used at the option of the teacher but map drawing in every step of this work should be insisted upon. In this way the directions of the manual for Third and Fourth Grades will be followed. The book should accomplish all Geographical work required in Second, Third, and Fourth Grades.
