From the preface by Deborah Meier: "We have a long way to go to make John Holt's dream available to all children. But his books make it possible and easier for many of us to join him in the journey." In this enduring classic, rich with deep, original insight into the nature of early learning, John Holt was the first to make clear that, for small children, "learning is as natural as breathing." In his delightful book he observes how children actually learn to talk, to read, to count, and to reason, and how, as adults, we can best encourage these natural abilities in our children.
How Children Learn (Classic Reprint) by Frank Nugent Freeman Pdf
Excerpt from How Children Learn The application of some of the facts which are presented is inherent in the statements themselves. If the whole method of memorizing is better than the part method in certain cases, then in such cases the whole method should be used. In a good many other instances, where the applica tion is not so obvious, some application has been suggested. But a grasp of the principles of mental growth prepares the teacher in some measure to make his own application. To furnish the teacher with devices has its place, but the teacher who is equipped only with devices lacks the means of initia tive and development. The reason that psychology has been of so little use to teachers is not so much the fact that the application has been left wholly to him, though this is un doubtedly one reason, as that the kind of facts that have been given are not such as could be applied. The effort has been made in this volume to present briefly those general facts and principles of mental growth which have most direct application to the problems of teaching, and to give the student sufficient suggestion regarding their application to enable him to continue the process of application himself.

Excerpt from Learning to Read: Suggestions to Teachers of Young Children To Teachers of Little Children: This little book is an outcome of schoolroom experience, and its "excuse for being" arises from an earnest desire to lend a hand to fellow-workers in a common cause. No sleight-of-hand or trick of the trade can serve as a patent and all-sufficient device in teaching reading. Hard work and ready wit, together with knowledge of child-life and love of teaching, - these must make the way to success. But a study of the experience of others may throw some light on the path of the young learner, - a path difficult enough at best in the early days. These hints and suggestions will fulfil their mission if they serve, even in slight degree, to answer the questions and solve the problems of the young teacher, whose privilege it is to lead her children into the Promised Land of Books. These pages are written in such hope, and go forth with cordial greeting to all whom they can serve. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

How Children Learn about Human Rights (Classic Reprint) by Wilhelmina Hill Pdf
Excerpt from How Children Learn About Human Rights With these rights go corresponding responsibilities. The child must not interfere with the comfort and security of other children. He must listen to other children's ideas as they listen to his. He must expect that other children will disagree with his ideas from time to time. He must realize that decisions of the group may not always agree with the decisions he would like to see made. And he must learn to behave in these ways because he sees the fairness of so doing, and because he wants to rather than because he is required to. In order to be a good citizen in his community, State, Nation, and world, a child must be a good citizen at home and in his school community.

Child Life in Tale and Fable by Etta Austin Blaisdell Pdf
Excerpt from Child Life in Tale and Fable: A Second Reader A taste for good reading is an essential part of an education. To develop this taste, while helping the child to learn to read, this book has been prepared. It is important, in the beginning, that the child should like What he reads, and that the lessons should not be so difficult as to mar his pleasure in reading. For this reason great care has been taken to make attractive lessons, Within the child's ability to read and understand. The stories, as the name of the book suggests, have been carefully selected from the legends, tales, and fables, which, by their genuineness and truth to life, have come to form a literature for children. The longer selections have been divided into parts of sufficient length for one lesson. By doing this it has been possible to introduce versions and adaptations of tales of real classical value. The more difficult words are placed at the head of the lessons, and are marked for pronunciation. A key to these marks is given and should be carefully studied.

The Beautiful Book for Little Children (Classic Reprint) by John Shorey Pdf
Excerpt from The Beautiful Book for Little Children A thing of beauty is a joy forever, says the poet; and so we cannot too soon begin to teach the child to recognize and love the beautiful. We here give him the beautiful in art, and the beautiful in thought; and, if he has not yet learned to read, the parent or teacher will here find the means of teaching him with ease and speed. The method is plain and natural, like that of teaching a child to speak. Point to the words of a line in their order, and see that he gives his attention to their form, size, and sound. Repeat this patiently, and for a short time every day; and you will soon be surprised at his progress. Do not trouble yourself, as yet, about the alphabet, or the analysis of syllables; and let the little pupil himself choose the piece that you are to drill him on.

The Study of Children and Their School Training (Classic Reprint) by Francis Warner Pdf
Excerpt from The Study of Children and Their School Training This work is addressed chiefly to teachers, parents, and others in daily contact with children; but contains information that is likely to interest those engaged in directing education, philanthropy, and other forms of social work as well as those concerned with mental science. The book has been written in the hope of aiding an advance in the care of children, and in the practice of educational methods, by promoting a more exact study and classification of the children to be cared for and trained; while giving an account of some conditions of childhood in its many varieties as seen from the standpoint of the observer who records what he sees as in other branches of physical science. For the purposes of observation, a clear account of the points to look at, what to look for, and what may be seen, normal or subnormal, forms the alphabet of our subject. Child study has of late years been actively carried on in America and in other countries. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Easy Primer (Classic Reprint) by Geoffrey Buckwalter Pdf
Excerpt from The Easy Primer No one but a teacher of little children can possibly be aware of the number of times they must see words, and read and write and spell them, before they are able to recognize them at a glance, before they can read them, especially in new connections. Learning to read is a complex process, and the complexity has given rise to many so-called Methods. To teach reading well the skillful teacher will use the best parts of all good methods, and will blindly follow none. Walking and talking are also complex pro cesses, and yet babies learn to walk and to talk with very little or no help. Under right conditions the child should begin to read almost as naturally and unconsciously as it begins to talk. Under favorable conditions some children learn to read without any teaching. At the start the mechanics of reading, although important, should not be so obtruded upon the beginner as to hide from him the purpose of learning to read. Ideally, the education of the child is natural, unforced, and unhindered development. We should in cite, indirectly, and maintain his interest; we should, without attempting many things at a time, carry the child along as fast as he should go, but no faster. And we should keep in mind that the great factor in the child's education is not method, nor teaching, nor environment, but an innate faculty that makes for develop ment.

How to Teach Beginning Reading (Classic Reprint) by Samuel Chester Parker Pdf
Excerpt from How to Teach Beginning Reading Games played with candlestick and at blackboard - A candlestick which had been provided for the occasion was brought out and the children played a game of jumping over it, meanwhile becoming more familiar with the rhyme. Miss Hardy then said she knew another way of playing the game in which all could play it at once. The children wondered how it could be done, and the teacher showed them how to represent a candlestick on the blackboard with the chalk and how to show Jack jumping back and forth by curved lines. The children exhibited considerable individuality in their drawings of the candlestick, some adding a little curved handle, others adding the flame with smoke trailing off. They practiced the rhythmic sweeps, back and forth, while reciting the rhyme in unison. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Child and the Curriculum (Classic Reprint) by Catherine Isabel Dodd Pdf
Excerpt from The Child and the Curriculum There is another study in which I am engaged, which is still more tedious and perplexing - to make myself master of all the rules of a hundred different kinds of verses, and of all the musical modulations of words and syllables. After deploring the lack of able teachers, he continues It would far exceed the bounds of a familiar letter to explain this matter fully, to lay open all the secrets of that art of metre, concerning letters, syllables, poetic feet and figures, verses, tones, time, &0. Add to this the doctrine of the seven divisions of poetry with all their variations, and what number of feet every different kind of verse must consist of.
