Excerpt from The Course of Study in Civics: Grades One to Six, for the Public Schools of PhiladelphiaIt is the purpose of the course in civics in the first grade to lay the foundation of good citizenship by devel oping ih the child some of the fundamental civic virtues. The work in this grade is, therefore, primarily training in morals and manners.There are three conditions necessary to the develop ment of right moral conduct. The child must know what is right. he must desire to do it. but, most important of all, he must be trained, through constant practice, in the formation of goo-d habits.The knowledge of the right and the emotional basis for future action may be given by means of story, poem, song, memory gem, games, dramatization and other class or group exercises. In such instruction, care should be taken to avoid pointing the moral, as to do so is likely to Spoil the emotional reaction desired. While this instruo tion will constitute a very small part of the day's work, the doing side or practical application will be constant.In the main, the teacher's method should be one of securing results by commendation rather than by censure.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
