Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Phonics, Vocal Expression and Spelling
In the preface the standpoint from which this book has been written is indicated, viz the preparation of all the conditions necessary to determine the powers of the pupil, to minister to its growth and to invest all teaching with interest.
All the higher processes of thought depend on the ao curacy of the concepts which have been received through the senses. All teaching, to be true, must connect words with things and with action. Children are interested in life, in action, not in mere names. This should be our fundamental insight in the study of child nature.
