From Western School Journal.
The twenty fifth annual meeting, at Tope-
ka, Kansas. July 18th and 10th, was I'M
the greatest teachers convention
of the world, an assembly whose sessions will
be referred to with pleasure by thousands of
teachers for years to come Among intelli-
gent parents, as well as with the professional
teachers of the present day, the need of a
and elementary department to
primary school work is seen. Supt w. n
Hailman, of La Porte, Ind, devoted some
time to the application of Froebel's princi- |
pies to primary school work, from which we
Gull few thoughts. Froebefs great prin-
ciples are: First, the religious principle,
which calls OF every step for the preserva- |
ton of the unity and wholeness OF life. Sec
ond the ethical principle, which requires
that the child at every step be led through
the entire process of consciousness from feel |
ing through thought to conduct. Third, the |
-psychical principle, which requires
that education at every step respect the
spontaneity OF growth, leading the child
through faith to freedom; which insists on
the need OF right motives, on the develop |
ment of character as the highest outcome of |
growth.
The courses of study should be arranged |
not IN straight line, but in concentric cir
cles, taking the child as e centre, and gradu-
ally expanding on all sides as the child's
power increases. affording it a free. full out
look in al the directions OF rich, practical
life. The child shonld not grow up in
whimsical obedience to its own caprice, but
be led to free obedience 20 law. Again the
child should be led 10 method and system iii
all it does. Children mus. be taught to make
things for the sake Of accuracy and clear
oess Of thrught, and to secure the fetlins and
habit OF doing, OF working, of creating: here
lies, too, the value OF tie school workshop OF
