Synopsis
The First (-Sixth) 'Standard' Reader, Part 6. The Sixth Standard Reader is a 1863 educational anthology compiled and edited for elementary schools by James Stuart Laurie. It continues the 'Standard' series' aim of providing affordable, engaging reading material that combines instructive content with entertainment. It assembles a broad range of pieces—moral tales, short narratives, fables, poems for recitation, biographical sketches, and selections from geography, natural history, and daily-life topics—designed to be accessible through simple language, clear punctuation, and graduated typography. The contents include prescriptive reflections on industry and conduct (It Will Never Do to Be Idle; The Indolent Scholar; Meaning of Doing), narratives about courage, generosity, honesty, and duty (The Humane and Courageous Peasant; The Man in the Fustian Jacket; The Lost Lambkin), standalone historical and literary extracts (Gesler and William Tell; Massacre of Glencoe; The Battle of the Clouds: Teneriffe), and topical pieces from newspapers (supplements on health, housing, and social issues). Prefaced with editorial notes about the Revised Code and reading pedagogy, the book remains a practical, varied primer designed to foster reading fluency, character formation, and general knowledge.
