ANIMAL STUDY IN SCHOOLS
SOME INTERESTING SUGGESTIONS MADE

Another plan. advocated by Professor Dewey, or
the University Of Chicago. acts the principle
that il IS Of nc to teach until the child Is
ready for il. This method teaches the history or
animals and plants by observation from the begin
ming so reading is not included In study until the
pupil wants learn 70 read.
Another the Humanistie. teaches reading as
early as possible in order 10 introduce the child to
Literature and history, emitting arithmetic ana the
other subjects on the usual list until later
sThe best system" said DR.. Kelly, is none Of
these but some OF all Of them. Nature study should
have It's own place from the beginning, and the
child should be taught early a love for al living
things but other branches should not be under-
There are some psychological rules that are
essential TO any successful teaching. The first IS
only by virtue Of its own activity A second is
that children do not analyze put they Petce.ne
