BUSINESS.
Would you develop the habits of
thinking? Then see that children
have opportunities for thinking;
that the establishment of other ha-
bits promotes thinking; in addi-
ton. that they have problems to
solve, decisions to make plans to
formulate, selections and COMPARE
sons to make.
Every principle of progressive
education is observed in the work
Of the kindergarten. The child's
imagination is aroused; his powers
Of observation are improved; right
attitudes toward social problems
are established, and interest is
aroused in real and worthwhile ac-
tivities. Work and play are used to
develop the child mentally, phys
ically and emotionally. The mid
morning lunch period establishes
many useful social habits. The
child's interest in music. art and
literature is aroused, and he is CIV
en- start in the appreciation Of
the cultural things in the world.
The child is taught to assume res
possibility as he cares for his
wraps and materials, and in the
way he behaves in all his social
relations.
In truth, the kindergarten Is a
sort Of miniature world in which
the child lives fully and richly, and
as a result makes it easier for the
child to make the step into a big
ger world. No child should be de-
prived of the opportunity for phys
ical, mental, social, esthetic and
emotional growth as afforded by
the kindergarten.
Sank Centre Is indeed fortunate
to have a kindergarten as few
towns of it's size in any state af-
ford pre-school training.

er, ever watchful, assists the child
who assumes q tense and uncom-
Portable position, and there is re-
laxation-rest.
A bell rings. The children stir, sit
up fore a minute, then pick up
rugs and put them away in neat
piles. Good housekeeping habits
are always in order.
The group gathers around the
piano. Songs they like to sing are
chosen and sung either in small
groups or by the entire kindergar-
ten. Great interest is shown when
new song is suggested.
Now the children enjoy a story
with the teacher. Dramatic play
may follow or often the children
illustrate the story with their own
drawings. Some story hours are
given over to the enjoyment Of pic
ture books. Good habits are devel-
oped in the care Of books such as:
washing hands before handling,
turning pages carefully without
tearing, and opening books without
breaking the backs.
It is now time for rythms, games,
or recess. On days when weather
permits the children put on their
wraps and go with their teacher to
play outdoors. They run, jump,
slide, and climb on poles. They
play London Bridge, Farmer in the
Dell, and Drop the Handkerchief.
They have happy time. They
learn to play a fair game, to take
turns, to follow the rules Of the
game, to be considerable, and to
respect guidance from the teach
or.
On days when this period is given
over to rythms, the teacher plays
several kinds Of rhythms. The chill
dren listen and are encouraged to
go on the floor and do what the
music tells them to do. First one,
then another shows in his own way
what the music prompts him to do.
Occasionally one child helps tim
i'd child to skip or dance.
Then comes the close of the kim
dergarten day. The bell rings. Chill
dren get their wraps, say goodbye
to the teacher and walk quietly
from the building.
Important Habits Developed
Would you develop the habits
Of responsibility? Then give the
child a chance to assume respon-
sibilities. Let him be responsible
for the care of his wraps, plants,
pets, and material. Children delight
in being helpers. They are glad to
see that chairs and tables are in or
der, plants are watered, and pets
are fed. They are proud when they
have done something to make their
room attractive.
Would you develop the habits of
courtesyi Then, see that the child
practices courtesy. All through the
day are opportunities to develop
this habit, beginning with the
morning greeting through the use
Of Thank YOU" Excuse Me-" and
IF You Please; through sharing,
kindness to new pupils, being con-
siderate and helping others, re-
membering sick children; and
through the farewell greeting.
Would you develop habits Of safe
ty? Then see that every possible
opportunity is used for practicing
safety-coming to and from school
playing on the play ground, taking
part in fire drills, and helping one
another.
Would you establish desirable
attitudes and appreciation? Then
see that children have rich exper-
fences in music, art, literature and
nature study, National holidays
and special days through out the

tiles.
During this activity period the
children are absorbed in their
work because they have a definite
purpose in mind,-happy because
they are using initiative and self.
expression; growing in skill be-
cause they are accepting guidance
and information; and best Of all
they are learning to become citi-
zens by practicing courtesy, cheer
fulness, independence, helpfulness,
cooperation, and neatness.
The teachers suggestion that II
IL time to stop work calls for quiet
obedience and the practice Of good
housekeeping habits. Each child
stops work, cleans up work bench
or table, puts materials away, and
takes his place near the teacher.
There is a conversational period
about some well known topic. Per-
haps a child has brought in a frog.
He shows it to the children and a
nature study lesson follows. They
discuss the frogs characteristics
and habits, what he eats, how he
swims and how he walks. The class
decides to keep him, and the child
who is chosen to have charge of the
frog is proud Of his or her respon-
sibility.
"A part Of this period is given over
to a discussion Of the children's
work with the view of giving new
ideas and improving technic. A
wobbly wagon is held up and sug-
gestions are given to make it firm
and strong. And SO with other
projects-the children giving and
taking criticisms, and the teacher
asking questions to stimulate the
thinking.
1t is now mid-morning. During
the toilet and lavatory period, the
children learn hygienic habits Of
privacy and decency, and develop
habits of self-reliance and indepen-
dence.
All are now ready for the lunch
period. THE activities Of the lunch
period are varied and interesting.
The children develop sense Of or
der and proportion as they ar
range napkins and doilies in pro-
per places and at proper distances.
They develop number concepts as
they count children, decide on the
number of places, or take away
doilies that are not needed. They
have a chance to show good taste
as they arrange flowers on the Ia
BILE and reverence is experienced as
simple words Of grace are given.
Habits Of good table etiquette are
practiced; using napkins properly,
serving others first, end engaging
in pleasant conversation. Good
health habits are developed such
as washing hands before eating
eating slowly, chewing well, and re-
framing from eating food which
has fallen to the floor. Habits OF
neatness in good housekeeping are
made stronger as they clear the Ia
BILE, brush up crumbs, and put
chairs and tables in order.
After lunch comes time for rest
