Synopsis

Hands-On Teaching in Rural Schools offers practical, project-based guidance for crafts, toolwork, and farm-focused learning.

This practical guide helps teachers bring hands-on projects into the classroom with simple, step-by-step ideas. It emphasizes working drawings, reading working drawings, and correlating craft with academic learning to build both skills and understanding.

Inside, you’ll find a range of project ideas that blend craft, construction, and farming life—from building a tool chest and a rabbit trap to a hen-house or a weather vane. The book also covers how to manage space, equipment, and time, and how to integrate finishing, cement work, and leather work into a regular school schedule. It stresses the value of reports, credits, and school fairs to recognize effort and learning.

  • How to plan regular, hands-on sessions for upper elementary students
  • Steps for interpreting and using scaled working drawings
  • Projects that teach design, measurement, and problem-solving
  • Strategies for finishing, decorating, and maintaining handmade items

Ideal for educators of rural schools seeking a structured approach to practical learning that complements traditional subjects.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
