In the ordinary reading cla.s.s the work is largely done by a few of the brighter pupils. It is quite difficult to secure a careful preparation by the whole cla.s.s. It is also difficult to ascertain how well the pupils are prepared. The "Suggestive Questions" will be found very helpful here.
Care has been exercised in the division of the subject matter that each lesson may, in a sense, be complete in itself. The lessons are supposed to occupy twenty-five or thirty minutes; this, with the nature of the subject matter and the number of unfamiliar words, determining the length of the lessons.
The poem is to be studied twice:--
First, a general survey to get the story and the characters clearly in mind.
Second, a careful study of the text that the beauty and richness, the artistic and ethical values of the poem may be realized.
It is obvious that no scheme, however carefully wrought out, can in any sense be a subst.i.tute for earnestness, enthusiasm and sympathy; and careful preparation is an absolute essential of all successful teaching. With these, it is believed, excellent results may be secured by use of this plan.
