Synopsis

Excerpt from Primary Object Lessons: For a Graduated Course of Development, a Manual for Teachers and Parents, With Lessons for the Proper Training of the Faculties of Children

Instruction must begin with actual inspection, not with verbal descriptions of things. From such inspection it is that certain knowledge comes. What is actually seen remains faster in the memory than description or enumeration a hund red times as often repeated.

Thus 'wrote John Amos Comenius, an exiled teacher of Austria, about the middle of the seventeenth century. And to the introduction of his works Germany is largely indebted for the great progress in her schools which commenced during that century.

The book contains a series of lessons in natural history, drawing, color, number, size, sound, the human body, and moral ideas, and includes outlines and programs for implementing these lessons into primary school instruction.
