Excerpt from The School Methods Book: Methods, Aids, Devices, Material for the Help of Teachers of Elementary School Classes

There are five formal steps in teaching; the prepara tion, presentation, generalization, summary and applica~ t1on.

The making of the plan is the first step in the prepara tion work of the teacher. Many teachers do not believe in a plan. They have a program of the day's work and follow it mechanically. The architect or engineer who attempted a piece of work without carefully planning it would meet with poor results. The average teacher does not know how to make a plan. She confuses a program with a plan. The magazines say very little about it. If there is nothing new in material or method, teaching will lack interest to the pupil and teacher. Old plans cannot be used as the subject matter grows, e. G. History; it changes because of new discoveries, wars, develop ments of countries. The children's experiences vary. Some classes have excellent home conditions; others have only apologies for a home. The class that is poor in arithmetic needs twice as much time for that particular subject; children in foreign districts need more time for language and reading.
