Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Primary Work: A Manual for Young Teachers
This little book has been written for young Primary teachers, those just entering upon the work of teaching. For them only is it intended. The aim has not been so much to present anything new, as to make the experiences of the older teachers available for the younger ones. If in any small way this purpose is attained, if one teacher is helped even a little, the writer will have had her reward.
Apology must be made for the overlapping of the chapters. The one subject, language work would include all, for every lesson maybe a language lesson. The divisions, however, were made for convenience.
The methods given are not cut and dried, but are intended to be only suggestive. And, after all, methods count for very little compared with the presence of the living teacher in the school room. It may be necessary to teach many things and in many ways, but what we are will teach over our heads, and nothing ac quired will stand our pupils in such stead upon the battlefield of life as the memory of a pure, sincere life once lived in their midst.
