Modern English Lessons: In Two Books; Book One the Nature of Language Lessons in Language and Literature; Book Two Lessons in Grammar, Literature and Composition (Classic Reprint)Fb&c Limited, 21/07/2017 - 324 من الصفحات Excerpt from Modern English Lessons: In Two Books; Book One the Nature of Language Lessons in Language and Literature; Book Two Lessons in Grammar, Literature and Composition This book is intended to provide schools with English lessons adapted to modern methods of instruction. Such English lessons, it is generally agreed, should (i) lead the child into an appreciative and uplifting intimacy with noble literature; (2) foster in him a certain agility of thought and imagina tion, and habits of easy and correct expression; and (3) introduce him to the formal study of language. In pursuing these recognized ends of English instruction, teachers and schools find themselves limited or directed by two things: (i) the Special needs of their particular pupils, and (2) the require ments of Superintendents or prescribed Courses of Study. Extremely diverse are the needs of pupils in different localities; and the courses of study prescribed for different schools are by no means the same. From this it seems clear that a book of English lessons which is to be really and widely useful should not lay the emphasis too strongly on any one phase of English work, nor attempt to define too closely the precise order in which the material presented should be used.
