NOTE. If the work is carefully presented in the first three grades, by the end 

 of the fourth grade pupils should have a good, general idea of the mineral, plant 

 and animal worlds. No attempt should be made at any scientific classifications, 

 except that which comes from the personal experience of the pupils. Lead the 

 pupils to see, enjoy, love and reflect upon the beauties and wonders of creation.
