small amount of time on the part of the
teachers, whose cooperation is request
ed to insure the completeness and aceu-
racy of the returns. The plea is made
that every elementary school teacher,
including kindergarten and grammar
grades should be given an opportunity
to send in returns. In most cases, says
the commission, it will be best for the
principals to call the teachers together,
explain the blank and emphasize the i'm
portance of the entire matter" Princi-
pals should be responsible for the returns
in their own buildings, and Rnould for

PLAN STATE CENSUS
OF DEFECTIVE CHILDREN

OE
Dr. Arnold Gesell. chairman of the
committee on defective and handicapped
children, Connecticut Commission of
Child Welfare, has prepared a list of
groupings for census of school children
in this state, in order that statistics may
be tabulated for incorporation in the
report which will be made to the general
assembly at the next session. The ven
.ure VIII be tried first in Hartford, where
the officials of the board of education
have given their endorsement and will
be put into effect soon in other cities in
Connecticut.
The main idea of the commission in
making the effort to obtain these statis-
tics is that some accurate information
may be given in regard to the handicap
ped and defective children in school in
| Connecticut.
| This census is being made under the
| direction of the~state commission on child
welfare, which was appointed by Govern
or Marcus II. Holcomb empowered by
| law to investigate the entire question of
child welfare and to report the results
of its Investigations to the next session
of the general assembly.
It is essential that accurate statistics
concerning the classes of handicapped
school children should be carefully tab
ulated Teachers are asked to give a
brief statement describing the nature and
severity of the handicaps.
Under eight headings children who
are handicapped will be grouped as fol
lows:
Blind-Total inability to see or visior
so impaired as to be of little value.
Partially blind-Vision so defective
that ordinary school work cannot be done
satisfactorily, or only with the creates
difficulty.
Deaf-Total inability to hear or hear
ing so slight as to be of no practica
value.
Partially deaf-Hearing so defectiv
that the child is seriously landscapes
for ordinary school work
Stutterers-Pupils who spasmodicall,
or uncontrollably repeat syllables, words
or initial sounds of words.
''Lispers" group includes all Sc
, we're cases of indistinct and disfgure
speech and extreme difficulty in artic
ulation.
