Synopsis

Excerpt from Coping Saw Work

We had seen children of this age use a coping saw successfully in lviiss Langley''s classes at the School of Education, Chicago University, and in lwr. W. J. Standley''s work in the Y. M. C. A. Day classes, at Portland, Oregon. Our problem was to devise a suitable equipment for the regular teacher to use with forty-eight children in the ordinary classroom, and a course of work, teachable in her inexperienced hands, of real merit, educationally, in the development of the child. After experimenting a term or two in different schools, the following equip ment and course was devised. The unusual interest and delight Of the children in this work, together with the success of the teacher in pre senting it, led to its adoption for all the fourth-grade rooms in the city, about fifty in number.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Teachers College, New York City. The two latter courses were confined to geometric forms. The same was largely true of the fret-saw work in the Berlin Course of Easy Woodwork, translated and published in London by O. Newman Sons in 1895, tho in this course a strong appeal was made to the constructive interests by bringing inta the series of models a wagon, a cart, sand mill, bird house, steps, sled, windmill, bow-gun and even the acrobat. At Pratt Institute Frank H. Pierce has developed a scheme of work giving emphasis to problems with freehand outlines similar to some of the animal forms found in the Eva Rohde System. And now comes Mr. Johnson sscheme, which demonstrates that he, more than any of the rest of us, has caught the play spirit the childs point of view, in this work. He has given us models which are full of fun for the children, afford ample means for training in form study, construction, invention, and careful work. Moreover, his course involves so many mechanical principles that he might with considerable propriety entitle his article Applied Mechanics for the Fourth Grade. The Editor.
