Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a practical approach to implementing manual training in the elementary school, specifically within grades 1-8. The author provides an outline of courses, drawing upon a base of childcare and education to inform the approach. The outline is designed to be progressive and considers the confines of public school. It aims to teach children from an early age how tools are made and used, allowing them to develop their physical and mental capabilities. The book also explores the use of handwork to enhance the teaching of other subjects such as language, history, and nature study - using the act of manual training as a platform from which to teach a multitude of subjects. The author believes that his approach can help children become taller, larger, stronger men and women and further, that the skills gained from manual training will equip them with the skills to make a useful life for themselves.
