Practical Primer for Home and School
FROM the publishers, the Southern Missionary Society, there comes a copy of an attractive little book, “Practical Primer for Home and School.” It combines the word method and the sentence method in reading and writing, with the addition of “Busy Work” for every lesson, and so leads the little child along pleasant paths of knowledge, rather than over the old rough road. The subject-matter of the lessons does not simply furnish combinations of words for practise in reading, but it teaches Bible truths, and thus connects the reading lesson with Bible study. The book is fully illustrated, including many colored pictures and outline copies for drawing. It will doubtless find a place in many homes and church-schools.
