Présentation de l'éditeur

Nature Work in the school curriculum is established. It has passed the experimental stage. I ts value as an educational factor is recognized. The object in introducting Nature Study Made Easy into the classroom is twofold: (a) To make easy for the teacher the task of bringing the child of ten or eleven years of age to realize some of the elementary truths of Nature seen in the world of plants around him. () To make intelligible to the child, by exercising his observation and exciting his interest, the wonderful lessons that the Plant World daily unfolds to him. In view of this fact much illustrative matter is brought before the class. Pupils are directed to gather their own materials and bring them to the classroom, to work out and record their own experiments, to grow their own plants. This puts a personal element into the study. The lessons are given in a simple, pleasing manner; a second lesson, in different form, sometimes following the first, to impress or fix it.

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.
