Health Education In The Primary Grades, Aurelia S. Taterczynski

Bachelors’ Theses

It seems that the schools of today have the real responsibility and task of teaching health education, so it has become a part of the educational program of almost every school system, as a result many schools are now equipped with medical and dental clinics. Undernourished children are aided in maintaining a balanced diet. School lunch-rooms furnish wholesome foods. Physical examinations and. home visits from school nurses constitute part of the program. Then, too, the teacher has become responsible, not only, for the training of the minds of children, but also for the health and welfare of the children in …

Radio In The Elementary School, Lenore Mary Stagg

Bachelors’ Theses

Radio is a magic instrument of unity and power destined to link nations, to enlarge knowledge, to remove misunderstandings, and to promote truth. But it will not achieve these things unless we keep a more watchful eye on those who use it and those who control it. We should arouse in all people a greater sense of their responsibility for the proper use of this modern miracle. One of the distinguishing features of American democracy is the excellence of its common school system. Another name for common school is elementary school. Children who are engaged in the Kindergarten and the …

The "New Deal" In Physical Education, William J. Luoma

Bachelors’ Theses

It would have been an interesting study to investigate the history of physical training, and to trace the different opinions, events, and epochs which have shaped and characterized the development of this important phase of education. The development of these different exercises and the influence they would have upon the development of the people would also have been an interesting study.

Drama In The Elementary School, Ruth Mcdill

Bachelors’ Theses

That the dramatic instinct is inherent in man, and has not been acquired with civilization, has been established by careful studies of the practices of primitive peoples, by observation of children’s mimicries and rhythmic actions, and by tracing the development of drama through all the ages. It has been noted that all the rudimentary elements of primitive drama are still a part of civilized dramatic art. Man is religious by nature, and he has always manifested his religion in dramatic ceremonial. It is from the religious ceremonial of primitive people that drama has evolved.

The Period Of Rapid Progress In Fundamental Reading Attitudes, Habits, And Skills: Second Year, Arabelle T. Weich

Bachelors’ Theses

"The justification of any subject in the curriculum is that it enables pupils to engage effectively in desirable life activities."

If the training accomplishes this and so makes better citizens, then its inclusion is justified. Instruction in reading should take into account the reading experiences of children and adults both in school and social life. We must therefore first consider the kind of reading adults do. That will be the kind children will have to learn to do better. A great change has occurred in the educational field in the last years. The course of study has been greatly enriched. …

First Grade Reading Activities, E. Esther Nimz

Bachelors’ Theses

After years of scientific research, educators are agreed that in order to teach primary reading successfully, the laws of learning must be utilized. The three important laws which govern learning, are the Laws of Readiness, Effect and Exercise.

As soon as a child shows a desire to read, he should be encouraged to do so and an opportunity should be provided. He should be surrounded with interesting and attractive reading material because according to the law of readiness we find that when a bond is ready to act, it will result "in satisfaction; not to act will result in annoyance.

Guidance For The Worthy Use Of Leisure, Florence E. Conway

Bachelors’ Theses

Leisure, once the exclusive privilege of the aristocracy, is in America, to a degree the privilege of the masses . With the development of -scientific methods and machinery the amount of time free from employment has increased, causing leisure to loom up as a gigantic problem. The significance of increasing spare time is most important because of the use that is made of it. The use of anything calls for acts of choice. The more leisure we have, the more choosing is necessary. The present generation having more time at its disposal than had any previous generation in history must …

The Content Of The High School Biology Course, Paul A. Geenen

Bachelors’ Theses

Ignorance is bliss. Perhaps it is ignorance which prompts youth to attempt problems which the united efforts of experts and specialists have failed to conquer completely. However, there must be one "first attempt"; perhaps the first futile trials will eventually lead to something really worthwhile. This thesis is an attempt to help solve an almost insoluble problem: "What should be included in the high school biology course to give the best results." The work is based very largely on the results of those who have wrestled with the problem and emerged with new ideas; it is an effort to present …

Bachelors’ Theses

Reading In The Upper Grades, Catherine A. Mcdonnell

Bachelors’ Theses

There are two large values of wide experience gained through reading. The first is its contribution to the broad, well rounded development of the reader. If chosen wisely and properly, reading materials will extend the experiences of boys and girls, enlarge and correct their fund of information and stimulate their habits of good thinking. The second value gained through wide reading is that it contributes to the development of power to interpret effectively what is read. The fact is generally recognized that a reader of wide experience interprets what he reads far better than one of limited experience. If reading …

Reading In The Primary Grades, Doris May Watrous

Bachelors’ Theses

Probably no subject in the school curriculum has been as widely discussed and investigated during the past decade as reading.

The majority of teachers are keenly aware of the fact that these changes in procedure have done much to improve the efficiency of the reading program. The purpose of this paper is to present the general objectives of all reading activities, and, more specifically, the aims in each of the first three grades; to state, to discuss, and to evaluate the various methods …

Motion Pictures In Education, S. O. Opsahl

Bachelors’ Theses

Schools have long been in existence but until . recent years little has been done to attempt to adapt them to the interests and needs of children so as to better fit them to take their place in the work of the world. As this purpose of education has been coming into prominence, methods for accomplishing it have brought many problems before the educators. Changes in methods of teaching, enrichment of the courses of study, and the extension of equipment for teaching, are factors which have been brought forward toward forwarding the real purposes of education.

Teaching History In The Fourth Grade Of The Milwaukee Public Schools, Verna C. Devine

Bachelors’ Theses

Rapidly changing industrial conditions and the crowding of our cities have placed a new emphasis on man's contacts with his fellow man. We live in such close interdependence in a world grown small through such factors as steamships, radios, and airplanes that our social adjustments must of necessity differ widely from those of our ancestors whose homes were almost self sustaining. Our schools have realized the necessity for a changed curriculum and are placing more and more emphasis on the social studies. But we are still asking ourselves: What shall we teach? And what place shall history have in the …

Silent Reading In The Intermediate Grades, Helen Selle

Bachelors’ Theses

There is a very close relationship between reading and the other school subjects. It is most closely related to the children's daily experiences, and should be taught in connection with them. It is essential in every content subject, as a means of getting information and pleasure.
