Management and methods for rural and village teachers

Preface

Teachers in rural and village schools have problems of then: own. They often have all grades to teach, and many times have a crowded room with few facihties for teaching. Most books on School Management and on Methods of Teaching have been written from the viewpoint of the model school or the city system, and contain much that is impractical in the rural or the village school where ideal conditions do not exist. ** Management and Methods*' was written to help rural and village teachers. It embraces nine years' experience in these schools, corrected and modified by several years of deeper study and broader experience.

It will,^ we beUeve, be found at all times pleading f:r good common sense in the school-room, and for work and study and planning on the part of the teacher. The suggestions will be found helpful, we trust, to teachers, both old and young ; and if they are, the author will be satisfied.
