Synopsis

This book explores the use of Object Teaching to develop and cultivate perceptual faculties. Object Teaching utilizes everyday objects to enhance a child's perceptive and expressive powers, supporting the formation and expression of ideas. The author contends that, following the pattern of natural human development, perceptual faculties should be exercised before reflective powers and that activity is key to a child's intellectual growth. Drawing from a range of disciplines, this book provides a comprehensive approach to the application of Object Teaching across the curriculum, including language, geometry, and natural history. The author provides principles and practical illustrations to guide the reader, whether a parent or educator, in the implementation of Object Teaching. Ultimately, this book aims to empower educators with a natural method of fostering a child's ability to think, feel, form purposes, and express themselves accurately and effectively.
