Product Description

Excerpt from Course of Study for High Schools: Subject History and Social Science

A uniform notebook should be used throughout the school in all classes; if this is impossible, at least throughout the class.

It is possible to burden pupils with notebooks that require a great amount of mechanical labor which, so far as helping the pupil to a better understand ing of history, is a mere waste of time. The mere reproduction of paragraphs from text or reference books is worse than useless.
