A PRACTICAL GRADED SCHOOL COURSE 



BY 



CHARLES KEEN TAYLOR, B.S., M.A. 



While appealing strongly to parents and others inter- 

 ested in education, this book is intended chiefly as a 

 manual for the use of teachers in the primary and gram- 

 mar schools, and contains detailed plans for the carry- 

 ing on of a complete system of moral education. Mr. 

 Taylor endeavors to bring in the entire moral field, 

 considering the morality that should govern men as 

 citizens, as workers, and as private individuals. 



A part of this system is the correlation and direction 

 of activities already in the school ; but two new activi- 

 ties are added — an unusual physical-training system for 

 boys and a domestic-science course for girls. In the 

 physical work a method is provided by which boys 

 become so interested in their physical development that, 

 by using this interest as a lever, their character can be 

 profoundly influenced for good. The domestic-science 

 plan includes the establishing of "model homes," for 

 girls as low as the third grade. In these model homes, 

 under suitable direction, the girls are instructed in 

 matters pertaining to the home, from housekeeping and 

 home sanitation to the actual care of infants.
