ENGLlsHE IN ELEMENTARY
SCHOOLS

r A strong statement Of the need for
better teaching Of the English Ian.
guage in the schools has been made
recently by Milton G. Potter, super.
intendent Of schools, Milwaukee, Wis.
consin. A few quotations from his
address win be of interest In Hawaii:
The first requisite for success In
teaching elementary English Is that
we assign the. first place. not to gram.
mar as was the method for many
years, but to written and oral com.
position" -. :.
while the pupil should know some.
thing OF the structure of the English
language, he must devote most CT his
time to the actual speaking and writ
ing Il" ~>s
Three out Of every four teachers
and superintendent believe that too
much technical grammar Is taught In
the elementary school. The first word
on this subject Is that we must turn
right about face and devote most OF
our time and energy. not In teaching
grammar, but to teaching compost.
ton" az. ( :,. s 2
ct follows from this that compost.
tion must be made over In order that
1t may deserve first place. It will
MOI do simply to continue the old
rerfunctory composition work of di-
recting the children to speak and
write and then condemning the words
they use. It must be transformed into
a vital thing connected with every
school subject, so that In HIS comDoL
sition work the child will pass through
series of vivid experiences In speak.
