FROEBEL'S EDUCATIONAL LAWS FOR ALL TEACHERS [Hardcover]

About the Book:-Many teachers have failed to investigate the educational principles of Froebel because they believe that the founding of the kindergarten was Froebel’s only educational work and that the methods of the Kindergarten are not adapted to the schoolroom. The veteran educator of England, Mr. J. G. Fitch, in his able report on training schools made to the Education Department of England at the Close of his long and honourable career, in speaking of the great advance recently made in the primary education of England and wales. In almost every college a special course of lectures is provided on the teaching of Froebel and Pestalozzi and on the application of their doctrines to the work of the infant school. Whatever is true and wise in the Froebelian and Pestalozzian philosophy is in fact, applicable to all classes of children of all ages. The Kindergarten was Froebel’s greatest work, but not his only educational work. The Education of man was published in 1826, fourteen years before he opened his first kindergarten, yet if he had died in 1827 his contributions to educational thought would have given him a foremost place among educational reformers.
