Excerpt from Elementary Physics and Chemistry: First Stage

The course of elementary physics and chemistry commenced in this book is based upon a syllabus of work approved several years ago by the Board of Education as suitable for the upper standards of elementary schools. The syllabus was divided into three parts, and the first of these is here dealt with.

The course is well adapted for experimental work by indi vidual children, and, as it forms a satisfactory introduction to the study of science, it is suitable for the lower forms of secondary schools as well as for pupils in the upper standards of elementary schools.

Every teacher now understands the importance of practical exercises in all scientific instruction, however elementary. Unfortunately, it is not as yet always possible to provide accommodation and apparatus sufficient to enable individual pupils to experiment. This difficulty has been borne in mind in designing the form of the following lessons, each of which is divided into two parts - the first consisting of instructions for the performance of simple experiments, the second of explanations of the principles taught by the practical work.
