Of SUGGESTIONS FOR THE TEACHER This Manual, while prepared as a supplement to the text-book Elements of Physical Geography by the author, may be used with any other text-book or with any lecture course. The manner in which the subject is taught and the experiments performed is governed to some extent by the place it occupies in the school curriculum. If it is in the third or fourth year of High School, after the pupil has had experimental work inC hemistry or Physics, the experiments need not be as elementary as if the pupil is doing his first laboratory work. For this reason more experiments are given than would probably be performed by one class in a years work, and the teacher can select from these the ones best adapted to the grade of pupils. It is supposed that most teachers will have some experiments which they prefer to some in theM anual, and which can be used as substitutes or as supplementary to those given. Further, the teacher is of course at liberty to change the wording of any of the experiments in any way that will adapt it the better to his class. The Manual, like the text-book, is intended only as a base on which the progressive teacher can build, and is intended to be suggestive rather than mandatory. In all the laboratory work the pupil should be put as far as possible in the attitude of an original investigator.

About the Publisher

Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings. Careful attention has been made to accurately preserve the original format of each page whilst digitally enhancing the aged text.
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.
