Synopsis

This book is nothing less than a roadmap for the principles of effective education in the years of a child's life spent in primary grades (up to age 11). The author, an experienced education professional, begins by presenting a straightforward and realistic vision of what parents and society should expect from a well-rounded primary education for children, setting out 10 specific results that should be achieved, ranging from general literacy and numeracy to a basic understanding of science. Following on from this, the author takes a subject-based approach covering reading, English, spelling, writing, arithmetic, algebra, physiology, hygiene, geography, US history, civics, school management, methods of teaching, and nature study. For each subject, there are clear goals for what the child should know by the end of their primary education, as well as a series of thought-provoking questions and answers that are perfect for testing knowledge, stimulating discussion, and aiding retention. By approaching education with the aim of developing the well-rounded, patriotic, and upstanding adult citizen, this book will assist parents, educators, and school boards in working together effectively to provide all children with the educational foundations they need.
