Excerpt from When First We Go to School

September has come again. Once more the school-house doors are Open. What a troop of little children will enter for the first time. As we watch them, let us remember that it is the first time. Heretofore Johnny has played for long hours, noisily or quietly, as fancy dictated The boy's will is the wind's will, and it will not be easy to obey iron clad rules. Initiate him gradually into the routine of school work.

The Course of Study in reading, number, and perhaps literature and nature study, has been made out by the school board, in graded schools, and must be accomplished.

There may be different ways in which it can be done, but we will not interfere with or discuss these we will plan work and entertainment for the first half hour in the morning, recreation periods, and the seat work that is usually left to the discretion of the teacher.

Instead of correlating reading and number and nature study from day to day, why not choose some subject for thought and study broad enough to cover a month's work; one not lacking in variety, and with room for comparison and some play of the imagination?
