Book Description
Excerpt from Typical School Journeys: A Series of Open-Air Geography and Nature Studies Poor Law Commissioners, Professors of Sociology, and Business Men all combine to urge that something more may be done in the day schools to rouse the children's interest and increase their resourcefulness. The school period is a short one in the lives of working people. Five hours a day on five days a week between the ages of five and thirteen exclusive of holidays do not give the teachers much chance. Hence it is, that alongside of this movement to modify the school curriculum, there are many suggestions for the better use of holidays and leisure time. Reformers urge that the school buildings and parks may be more frequently used for recreation, wisely directed by grown up playfellows, that children should be prepared for their country holidays so that their eyes may be opened to enjoy the beauties and wonders of nature; that holidays of weeks may be substituted for holidays of days, and, generally, that playtime may be made a growing time for both the minds and the bodies of the children. While such theories are being discussed, Mr. Lewis is one of the teachers who has been making experiments in what is possible. In the following pages he tells what he has done both during school and holiday time. It is a pleasure to me to commend his book. I am convinced by what I have seen of children on Hampstead Heath, or in Westminster Abbey, how much may be done in such places to impress the children's minds, and how great need there is that those who conduct the children should prepare themselves to teach.
