A practical, graded science course for the upper elementary classroom.

This manual of inductive work guides teachers in building a solid foundation in natural science, with a clear sequence from plants to astronomy and beyond. It aims to sharpen students’ power of observation through hands-on study and structured activities.

Two sections present a complete approach: a practical program for students in grammar school and a forward look at how science topics connect to future study. The author emphasizes gradual, evidence‑based exploration, supported by experiments, observation, and discussion that fit real classroom routines.

Step-by-step laboratory and field activities that cultivate careful observation
Concrete experiments and tests that illustrate how living things and the physical world work
A planned progression through topics like plants, the stars, minerals, and the earth
Tips for organizing a graded program and allocating work among students

Ideal for teachers seeking a historically grounded, classroom-tested approach to early science, and for students who learn best by doing. This edition provides a practical framework to introduce science as an exciting, inquiry-based subject.
