Product Information

Excerpt from Home Geography for Primary Grades Too much has been expected of young children in the study of geography. Many of the so-called primary geographies are really t primary. They present a multitude of facts the most of which are beyond the power of the child to comprehend or retain. Childhood is a period of active memory, but this is reason why we should attempt to cram the mind with details of geography. Facts themselves are of value. It is only in their relations that they become significant. For the child of ten years it is t sufficient that facts be pre sented in their relations, but that these relations be such as will arouse interest through connection with the child's own experiences. To expect a child in the fourth grade to draw a map of the state in which it lives, locate the principal rivers, valleys, mountains, bays, cities, and name and locate the counties, is wrong. Parrot-like memorizing of such facts, at that age, can result only in harm. The facts mean thing and create a distaste for the work.
