Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to teaching geography to young students, arguing that current methods fail to engage them and do not foster effective learning. The author presents a three-phase approach to the subject that takes into account the natural learning progression of children's minds and the subject matter itself. The first phase focuses on developing the child's perceptive abilities through the observation and description of the Earth's physical features. The second is analytical, requiring the child to examine these features in more detail and classify them. The third phase introduces the child to synthetic thinking by examining the relationships between physical features and the human activities that occur in those spaces. The author draws on the work of noted geographers like Ritter and Guyot and stresses the importance of field trips and the observation of nature in developing a child's understanding of geography. The author believes that geography is not merely a collection of facts to be memorized, but a subject that can stimulate a child's curiosity and intellectual development. This book is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in improving the teaching of geography in schools and encourages a more thoughtful and engaging approach to the subject.
