He begins by discussing the importance of moral and religious education, arguing that these should be the foundation of any child's education. He then goes on to discuss the best methods for teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic, as well as more advanced subjects such as geography, history, and science.One of the key themes of Crabb's book is the importance of discipline and order in education. He argues that children should be taught to obey their teachers and follow a strict routine, and that this will help them to develop good habits and a strong work ethic.Throughout the book, Crabb also critiques the modern system of education, which he sees as overly focused on rote learning and memorization. He argues that this approach fails to cultivate critical thinking skills and creativity, and that a more balanced approach is needed.Overall, The Order and Method of Instructing Children is a valuable resource for anyone interested in education, providing practical advice and insights into the best methods of instruction.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
