Graded Course Of Study For Rural Schools

Arkansas schools

This is a guidebook designed for use by teachers in rural, one-room schools where they would be teaching first through seventh grade. The book offers guidance for how to schedule all of the lessons for the seven groups of students each day, how to successfully conduct classes, and what skills and knowledge to expect of each grade. The back of the book has space for recording the progress of each student over time. This guidebook in particular was utilized between 1909 and 1911, in central Arkansas County, Arkansas.
