Excerpt from Morton's Elementary Geography Geography naturally resolves itself into a description of that part of the earth's surface which is within one's field of observation and of that part which is beyond the home surroundings. The child should begin to study geography as soon as he is old enough to notice to any extent the objects about him. The instruction at first must of necessity be entirely oral. It should gradually enlarge the pupil's mental horizon and lead to conceptions of things far away. The oral work should be continued until the child is prepared to consider the earth as a unit. At this stage of progress a primary book may be placed in his hands. Each lesson, however, should be preceded by oral explanations. The language of the book should be Simple, concise, and accurate. It should begin with and constantly refer to the child's experience and environment. It Should introduce, naturally and in logical order, the various topics pertaining to the earth as a whole. It Should recognize the fact that the relation of the part to the whole is an elementary principle. When the earth is first considered part by part, the parts are with great difficulty, if ever, put into a harmonious whole. While it is true that the immense Size of the earth, its movements, and their relation to' other phenomena, are facts pertaining to a phase of geography which cannot be fully grasped by. Immature minds, yet distinct ideas of the elements which together form the world may be early imparted. It is impossible for children to study their own country intelligently as a whole, or in sections, Without this preparatory world study.

This little book is confined to very simple “reading lessons upon the Form and Motions of the Earth, the Points of the Compass, the Meaning of a Map: Definitions.” The shape and motions of the earth are fundamental ideas—however difficult to grasp. Geography should be learned chiefly from maps, and the child should begin the study by learning “the meaning of map,” and how to use it. These subjects are well fitted to form an attractive introduction to the study of Geography: some of them should awaken the delightful interest which attaches in a child’s mind to that which is wonderful—incomprehensible. The Map lessons should lead to mechanical efforts, equally delightful. It is only when presented to the child for the first time in the form of stale knowledge and foregone conclusions that the facts taught in these lessons appear dry and repulsive to him. An effort is made in the following pages to treat the subject with the sort of sympathetic interest and freshness which attracts children to a new study. A short summary of the chief points in each reading lesson is given in the form of questions and answers. Easy verses, illustrative of the various subjects, are introduced, in order that the children may connect pleasant poetic fancies with the phenomena upon which “Geography” so much depends. It is hoped that these reading lessons may afford intelligent teaching, even in the hands of a young teacher. The first ideas of Geography—the lessons on “Place”—which should make the child observant of local geography, of the features of his own neighbourhood, its heights and hollows and level lands, its streams and ponds—should be conveyed viva voce. At this stage, a class-book cannot take the place of an intelligent teacher. Children should go through the book twice, and should, after the second reading, be able to answer any of the questions from memory. Charlotte M. Mason

Excerpt from An Elementary Class-Book of General Geography The aim of the present volume, as of all elementary class-books of geography, is to give a brief account of the Earth as the dwelling - place of mankind. The descriptions throughout proceed from the general to the particular. Chapter I. describes the general principles on which geography depends. Chapters II and III give the outlines of physical geography, or the natural conditions of the Earth as a whole. The remaining chapters are devoted to more detailed descriptions of the continents. The position and natural features of each continent are first described in simple narrative form, the mountains, plains, and rivers are not enumerated in separate lists, but named as they actually occur, thus impressing the relation of mountain ranges to rivers, and of rivers to plains. The races of mankind inhabiting the several continents are referred to, and the main lines of their migrations are laid down on the basis of configuration and climate. The natural region which each modern country occupies is next more fully described in its relation to the continent. Its configuration, climate, and natural products of commercial value are indicated. The salient points of the nation's history are cited to explain how the struggles and migrations of races have gradually produced the existing people and determined the actual boundaries.

Excerpt from Essentials of Geography: A Manual for Teachers Geography in the Elementary Schools. - For many years geography has held an honored place in our elementary schools. In most of these schools some part of each school day for a period of several years is devoted to its study. During this time the children are expected to learn about their own country in some detail and less fully about other parts of the earth. On the whole, the fact that the subject has held so prominent a place in school work for so long a time may be taken as evidence of a widespread belief that children ought to know something about the world in which-they live. It can hardly be expected that, in these days of educational experiments, the place and value of this subject would go unchallenged. A few years ago some educational authorities became very critical of the amount of time devoted to it. A few even went so far as to suggest that the study of geography be given up or that it be limited to one or two years in the lower grades of the elementary school. For the greater part, however, criticism of geography as now taught in our schools has not been so destructive and sweeping, and has had to do chiefly with the kind and amount of subject matter taught and with the methods of teaching.
