Sinopsis
Excerpt from Science for Beginners an Introduction to the Method, and Matter of Science
Only a generation ago, it was the prevailing idea that all instruction in schools and all learning by pupils should be confined to the schoolroom and to books. Nature study was unknown, except that once in a while curious relics from foreign countries were brought in to emphasize some phase of the pupil's study. A little later more material was taken into the classes and used to verify to some extent the state ments of the books. But these were only fragments of the part of nature which they represented, and for that reason aroused very little interest in either teacher or pupil. Out of this somewhat fragmentary study has grown the laboratory method which is used in the better schools at the present time. But even yet there is not enough use of the real thing and the whole thing. The material for study is gathered by the teacher or is furnished by the school authori ties, and the pupils are required to handle only those portions which will illustrate the point under discussion. Gradually, however, teachers are coming to see that to get. The best results the pupil must, whenever possible, gather his own material. When this point is conceded, it is readily agreed that the pupil may oftentimes sludy his materials to greater advantage in their natural environment. The ih evitable conclusion to be drawn from all such reasoning is that in many cases the study Of nature requires that the pupil should go out of doors and, under proper guidance, observe, examine, describe, reason upon, and finally draw his own conclusions concerning the matter in hand.

Excerpt from Science for Beginners an Introduction to the Method, and Matter of Science
The writer of this book remembers very clearly that in his boyhood days he had an intense desire to investigate those things that were immediately about him. He had a dim notion that the problems of everyday life would prove most interesting if they could be solved in some way by himself. To him it seemed far more captivating to obtain knowledge through his own experiments than by merely reading from a book. This thought has remained with him all through the years, and it is because of it that this book has been written; the purpose has been to provide a book that will permit you to get the information for yourself.
The writer confesses one great anxiety, however. Will you, the boys and girls who use this book, have the courage to carry on the work in accordance with the spirit of the book? Will you do the work for yourselves, make the observations, keep a notebook, and so learn to know by doing?
If you desire to secure the best results from the use of this book, or any book for that matter, you must have a well-laid-out plan and must not do your work in the haphazard way that, is characteristic of many boys and girls of your age. You are asked to study carefully the suggestions that follow, and, if you think them worth adopting, to observe them to the best of your ability.
1. Make out a definite daily program for every hour of the day, and especially the exact time that you will devote to each of your studies.
