About this book
ERIC ED623318: Lessons in Science
Author: ERIC
Year: 1925
This textbook is a version of "First Course in General Science" simplified for younger pupils. There are fewer quantitative conceptions, many mathematical problems have been eliminated, and, where it has been possible without sacrificing clearness, much detail has been omitted. It discusses, in terms that the youthful mind can understand, phenomena of science constantly met in the home, the school, and the community. Each topic is pursued far enough to avoid superficiality and to give continuity to the course. The course is progressive; the earlier chapters are relatively easy; as the ability of the pupil grows, the course becomes correspondingly difficult. Numerous cross references are given to stimulate frequent reviews. Topics not essentially important in the environment of any class, or in the environment of the community, may easily be omitted without seriously breaking the continuity of the course.
