| Summary: | "Child study is the systematic observation of children. The aim of this book is to bring the subject before teachers in a clear, practical form; to furnish a definite basis and practical aim for systematic observation of school children. All theoretical or unpractical matter is omitted, and only that is included which is of paramount importance to the teacher. Forty report blanks are furnished, as that is enough for the average school, but extra blanks may be obtained from the publishers. The child study also includes an outline of each pupil's capacities and tendencies, to direct attention to the child as an individuals. The plan is especially adapted to institute work, as the topics are treated so briefly that the instructor may enlarge upon them as he chooses. It is recommended that children be brought before teachers and the outline filled in as far as possible, allowance being made for the embarrassment of the child under such circumstances"--Introduction.
