DEPARTMENT OF THE rNTERIOR,BUREAU OF EDUCATION,

Washington, September 10, 1915.Sm.: The large increase in the number of kindergartens in the

United States within the past few years and the revival of interestin .the kindergarten in all parts of the country have given rise to ademand for information about schools for the preparation of kinder-garten teachers and ,the standards and courses of study in tireschools. .The schools themselves ask for honest intelligent criticismof their work` and for suggestions for improving it. To meet thisdemand of the public, and to some extent in response to the requestsof the schoajs, this report has been prepared at my request throughthe cooperation of the National Kindergarten Association and a com-

kindergarten division of this bureau. This committee consists of thefollowing members: Nina C. Vandewalker, Myra M. Winchester, EllaC. Elder, Alice O'Grady, Patty S. Hill, Julia Bothwell, Alma Binzel,Hortense Orcntt, Mabel MacKinney, Amalie Hofer Jerome, Luella A.Palmer, Alice Temple, Mary C. Shute, Margaret A. Trace, ElizabethHarrison, Lucy Wheelock, Annie Laws, Mary B. Page, Maly McCul-loch, Catherine R. Watkkns, and Alice N. Parker. The section "Ide^als

k in kindergarten training" has been prepared by Jhe Committee ofNineteen of the International Kindergarten Union. I recommendthat this report be published as a bulletin of the Bureau of Education.

Respectfully submitted.P. P. CLAXTON,

Commissioner.The SECRETARY OF THE INTERIOR.

I. KneDER6tutrzN TRAINING IN RETROSPECT AND PROSPECT..".

By NINA C. VANNCY7ALKER, Bead of Kindergarten Department, State Normal.* Scheel, Mih ukee, Win... ..,

TheNincreaseill:the number of kindergarten's in the United-Statesand their ineorpoation into the school system have brought thetraining of kindergiutners into the field of public interest and inquiry.During the early..years of the movement the interest in such trainingwas slight, since-the kindergarten itself was private and the trainingwas given almost wlieV byrivate institutions. When the kinder-garten became A part; of the school system, the training of kinder-garten teachers necic:tarily became of vital interest to public schoolauthorities.

Interest in the quoAtihool authoritiesm ch to the scho

e school as a whop

is at present both kindly and critical.that the kindergarten has contributed

it has, in fact, created new standards forle adoption of which hap. enabled the school

to increase its effectiveness and value many fold. From this stand-point kindergarten training is accorded high praise. On the otherhand, from the stanipoint of the kindergartner's scholarship, herinsight into the kiiidefgarten as a part of the school as a whole, andher acquaintantie with the aims and methods of education in general,it is felt that kindergarten training is in need of improvement.School authorities who are conversant with the d44.velopment of suchtraining kribw, however, that improvement is already in progress, andthat the shortcomings in question are duo to the fact that the type oftraining which originated in the early years has not yet been fully.outgrown. A glance at the beginnings of kindergarten training istherefore necessary to a comprehension of the present situation.

When the demand for kindergarten training lint arose in theUnited States, during the decade from 1870-1880, elementary edu-cation was OM upon the traditional basis. The child's interests hadnot yet been discovered as ,an educational asset, and the wholepurpose of the school was instruction in the three R's, R ithout oven adiversion in the form of music, drawing, storytelling, or handwork,tInto this atmosphere ..,pf dead formalism the kindeigarten had come

.with its message of education.as development instead of instruotien.The favor with which it was received is shOwn by the feat that th9 10

kindergartens in existence in 18 creased to over 400 by 1880. Itwas because kindergartners were txl that training schools sprangup to supply them, and it was been the demand was great that thecourses wore short and meager. They -were ,hardly more meager,however, than the courses for the training of grade touchers at thistime. The two wore, in fact, nearly parallel, since the essence of theprospective gradetteacher's course was instruction in tho methods ofteaching the schoN arts, and that of the prospective kindergartnerwas instruction in the methods of using the kindergarten instru-mentalitiesgames, songs, and handwork. The kindergarten coursehad a strong element of interest which the other did not have, however,in its exposition of the doctrine of development as the basis of edu-cation. Because of the new insight which this study gave, the coursewas satisfactory on the whole in spite of its brevity.

The fact that the kindergarten remained private fir many yearsgave the training eahools the opportunity of organizing the, trainingcourse in accordance with their own ideals. In the course thusorganized the central theme was, as before, a study of the Froebehanconception of education, illustrated by the, work in the kindergarten.Of this the study of the kindergarten instrumentalities, the games,gifts, and occupations, formed an integral part. The carrying outof this plan called for much practice teaching and much study ofFroebel. The need for other lines of work was hardly felt, in fact.Since the kindergartens had no organic relation to the school, trainingteachers felt no necessity fo'r making a study of educational theory ingeneral, and since music, drawing, and nature study had not yetbecome an organic part of general education, the need for instructionin these or other general subjects was not felt. Such training, there-fore, became the typical kindergarten traillg, and, it was not untilkindergartners so trained entered upon pub schopl work that theneed for change was felt.

During -these years, from 1885 on, education had made' markedprogress. The conception of education as development had madeitself felt in the school, and such' subjects as music, drawing, andmanual training had been added to the elementary curriculum.This had resulted ip. higher standards for the training of teachers,standards which kindergartners were not prepared to meet. Schoolprincipals expected them to have a knowledge of these new subjects,and an insight into the problems of education in general, tut theirtraining had not included such subjects. The criticisms .made byschool authorities upon the narrowness of kindergarten coursesawakened kindergirten training teachers to the realization that if t4e,kindergarten was to-form a part of the school system, the trainingof kindergartners must be such as to meet the school requirements._This resulted in a gradual broadening of kindergarten courses.

RETROSPECT AND PROSPECT. . 7

As public kindergartens increased, the desirability of offeringkindergarten training course§ in public normal schools hecameapparent Kindergarten departments had, in fact been opened in8 normal schools, during the decade from 1880-1890, but these wererather for purposes of observation than of training. During the--following decade such departments wore opened in 25 more, mainlyfor the specific purpose of training kindergartners. From 1900 untilthe present time the number has increased

is76. "The changing

proportion,of private and public institutions is worth noting. Of the115 institutions that in 1903 gado kindergarten straining, 135 wereprivate and 40 public. Of the 147 in 1913, only 71 were private and76 public. In the number of students, the former still outrank thelatter, however. Of. the 2,000 kindergartners who were graduatedin 1912, 1,100 were from the private and 900 hell the public trainingschools'.

The kindergarten course organized in normal schools differs insome respects from that in most private institutions. In it a studyof kindergarten education is taken up against a background of gen-eral education in order that kindergaitners may see their own workin relation to that of the school as. a whole. That relation is madeclear in the instruction given in music, art, literature, and naturestudythe lines of work which the kindergarten shares with thegrades. Because of the emphasis upon the relation of tb,e kinder-garten to the /chool, and upon .adequate instruction in ail the linesof work that have their beginnings in the kindergarten, the graduatesof such courses can doubtless articulate their work with that of theschool more easily than can those who have taken courses of a -different character. In these respects normal-school courses havein many instaneset now standards for other training courses. ,

The training that enables a kindergartner to articulate her workwith that of the school in general has unquestioned value, but thisalone does not cover all that such training should include. Thekindergirtea embodies ideals 'concerning evly education, not for theschobl alone, but4or the home and the cakmunity at large. It isimportant that the kindergarten should articujate with the'school,but it is also important that it should articulate with the home andwith other agencies for child betterment in the community. Forthis, training is also needed,training that is sociological in character,and the purpose of which is the betterment of child life in the homeand community. It is because the kindergarten doctrines tendtoward this larger service that many training schools have alliedthemselves with the agencies for child welfare in the.00mmunity,and that they have thus given their students the insight into socialwork that has enabled them to become leaders. in playground andsettlement work and in other forms of social service. It is in their

participation iv, and training for, community work that manyprivate training schools have rendered conspicuous service. In thisdirection they have, in fact, set standards that few public trainingschools can reabh. It is perhaps because of their greater freeoomthat private training schools have been able to perform other serVicesto the cause of kindergarten training, the making of experimentsand working out of problems the 'have value .or the movement as a .whole.

It is in part because the several ideals that underlie kindergartentraining have received different degrees of emphasis in differentinstitutions al.d in part because different kinds of kindergartenwork call for different kinds of training, that kindergarten coursesand training schools differ as they do. Such differences can not bedispensed with; nevertheless, the conviction has. become generalamong training teachers that kindergarten training courses need im-proving in two directions. The first of these is a greater emphasisupon scholarship, and the second an effort toward greater uniformity.In consequence a new type of training course is in process of evolu-tion, one in which the virtues of the earlier type are retained, but inwhich the conditions and needs of the presdnt will be recognizedand met.

A study of the training courses given in this bulletin will showthat they posses great variety. In many the earlier type i4 stillclearly recognizable, although modifications of it nay be in evidence.In others the later one seems to have gained the ascendancy. Thisdiversity is not due to admit of common ideals, but to the fact thatthe present is a period of transition in kindergarten training. Theera in which such training first took shape in the United States haspassed away. During that era it was doubtless wise that the wholeeffort of training teachers should be concentrated upon the Free -bolian message. That era has given place to one which has acceptedthe developmental conception of. education in general, and whichaccepts the kindergarten as a part of the whole.

The present inquiry was prompted by the growing interest in theproblem of kindergarten training on the part of the liucationalpublic. It is believed that a statement of the results ar such aninquiry will prove helpful in many ways. It will give kindergartentraining teachers an opportunity to gain a general view of the kinder-garten training situation, and a' means of determining their commonproblems. It will enable them to make a study, too, of their crflTer-ences, and to see the need of standardOation in a greater degree thanhas yet been attempted. It can fot fail to be of service also.toschool authorities and toStudents of education in general, especiallybecause of the deeper insight it may give into the purposes andideals of the kindergarten itself ; because of the opportunity it will

RITHOSPEOT AND PEOBPZOT. 9offer to compare the training of kindergartners with:'that of gradeteachers} and' because it should lead to practical suggestions con-cerning the improvement of both forms of training.'

It is because of the general feeling that kindergarten treblingcourses need revising and strengthening that the Bureau of Educa-tion committee of the International Kindergarten Union was askedto outline a training course upon the lines which educational author-ities consider desirable in order that graduates may have the knowlwedge that present-day conditions require, and the viewpoint thatwill enable them' to' work in harmony with the school as a whole.This "suggested course," together !with certain convictions "thatunderlie its organization, will be found elsewhere in this bulletin.

The statistics concerning kindergarten training and training scxoolswhich this bulletin contains will tell much that is of value, but theycan give but little insight into the spirit that has made the kinder-garten and kindergarten training the force that these. have become inAmerican qducation. To gain this insight the facts here given mustbe interpreted in the light pf kindergarten progress as a whole in its

Nlelation to educational progress in the United States. So inter-preted the facts in question are full of promise for a larger and betterservice to the little children of America in the years to come.

ABLE 4, ENROLLMENT, FEES, GRADUATES.

Enrollment.--The Barnard Kindergarten Training School, Berkeley, tal., states,that the 18 spojial students reported were thoeo who were taking a course in the Mon-tessori system.

The State normal schools of Greele7, Cole, and Emporia, Kans., state specificallythat a number of students are taking partial courses in kindergarten work for the sakeof doing better teaching in the grades.

The University of Chica-o Chicago, Ill.; and the State Normal School of Peru,Nebr., include their summer-school students in their total enrollment. .

The National Kindergarten College, Chicago, Ill., gives a total enrollment exclusiveof summer-eehool students.

Tho training school of the Proebel League, New York, N. Y., includes in its totalenrollmentinothers and nurses who are taking regular courses provided for their specialrequirements. .

Cost of instruction.In the State normal schools of Nebraska and Wisconsin thenecessary textbooks can be rented- for a small fee.

Graduates.The subsequent careens of graduates is an interesting consideration inthe history of any school; espeekuilly is this true of kindergarten training schools. Thereports admit the difficulty of giving definite and complete information on this point;nevertheless the figures are sufficiently full and significant to indicate that there aresteady and insistent demands for young women with kindergarten training to fillpoeitions of responsibility connected with various forma of social work outside of theprofession of kindergarten teaching.

Some of these wider opportunities, aside from supervising, teaching in trainingschools, and grade teaching, are positions in settlements, on playgrounds, in libraries,in home and foreign missions, as deaconnesses, as doctors, as nurses, as social welfareworkers, as story tellers. Graduate kindergarteere are also found specializing inmusic, art, and literature; studying for advanced 'degrees; or engaged in editorialwork, business, and farming.

The Chicago Kindergarten Institute, Chicago, Ill., gives figures which include etu-dents who have taken partial and graduate courses as well as those who are full gradu-Mee. Of this total number 383 are now teaching, 45 are in other kinds of educationalposiitions, 31 are in other Lines work; and ea are at home.

The National Kindergarten ehllego, Chicago, Ill., reports that records of studentsfor the period between 1885 and 1890 are not available. Moreover, the number of

HINEYERGARTEN TRAINING SCHOOLS.

graduates, 825, represents for the most part those who have completed the three years'course, the change to a Iwo years' requirement dating from 1910.

Teachers College, Columbia University, New York, N. Y., has not a complete recordof the kindergarten department, but reports that 231 students were graduated inkindergarten teaching from 1908 to 1913 and V3 in kindergarten training and super-vision.

Demand and supply. Reports from public normal schools indicate that the demandfor kindergarten trained graduates to fill purely kindergarten positions is lees than thesupply, but that there is an excessive demand for such graduates to fill grade positions.On the other hand, the private kindergarten training schools report that their gradu-ates are in constant demand to fill positions in kindergartens as well as in the grades.

ON TABLE 5, CURRICULUM.

Other books on kindergarten. Kindergarten literature embraces a largo number ofbooks, pamphlets, reports, and articles in mtu,,arines. The writings of Froebel ordi-narily entering into the kindergarten course of study are the Mother Play, Educationof Man, Pedagogics of the Kindergarten, and Education by Development. The MotherPlay and Education of Man are in general use as textbooks; the Pedagogics and Edu-cation by Development are studied in connection with the practical work in gifts andoccupations (kindergarten manual activities), or used as reiorence and collateralreadings.

The other books on kindergarten most frequently mentioned in the reports are:Proebel's Educational Laws (Hughes); Symbolic Education, Letters tea Mother, Edu-cational Issues in the Kindergarten (Blow); The Kindergarten (Blow -hill- Harrison);The Kindergarten in American Education (Vandewalker); A Study of Child Nature(Harrison); Froebel and Education by Self-activity (Bowen); Life of Froebel (Snider);Kindergarten Problems (Teachers College Record).

Other subjects.The range and variety of those subjects present such an interestingaspect of the kindergarten course of study that they seem to warrant the arrangenientof a supplementary table.

, III. 13IIGGESTED TWO-YEAS KINDERGARTEN COURSE.

The course here presented is the result of much careful sttaly on thepart of the Bureau of Education committee.' The request for such acourse was made at the Springfield meeting of. the InternationalKindergarten Union, April, 1914, and the secretary of the coeirteewas instructed to formulate e tentative co containing certainprovisions, to be sent to the committee members. a result of the

...suggestions and criticisms made upon this, the course was revisedby the chairman and again sent out. This course still' met with someobjections on the pirt of a few members, but was approved by themajority. After a discussion of its general features at the Cincinnatimeeting, February, 1915, the course was assigned to a special sub-committee to make some further changes, and again sent out. Asa result of the last revision it has received few criticisms of any note,and is therefore considered acceptable to the committee as a whole.The course is based upon The following considerations, whiCh wereadopted at the Cincinnati meeting:

1. That the Bureau of Education committee should advocate a school year Ancit lessthan 36 weeks, in view of the fact that normal schools, colleges, and universities have ayear of that length or mere.

2. That it should advocate not more than a year of practice teaching in a two-yearcourse. A larger proportion means that this work must be undertaken before stddentshave had the theoretical study that will give them the insight needed for intelligentparticipation in kindergarten procedure. It means also that the, time for the subjectsof the course will be too limited for their adequate mastery. This is in accord with thecustom of the beet normal schools and With the views of those who sent in returns.'

3. hat it should advocate not more than one-thrrd as much observation duringthe fi year as there is student teaching during the two years, and that this observe"

For me of this committee see p. 4.On this po t there is not entiro conformity of judgment. The advantages of devoting a treater

amount of time to practice teachhg are vetoed by Miss Elizabeth .liarrison in the following note:One year of practice work in a ta .z-year course, divided as planned in the tentative report, robs the

studentof the observations of the continuous daily grwth of the children and of the clear-cut educationalcontinuity of the program with its adjustment to emergencies and Incidental interests as they arise. Mylong experience as a kindefearten training teacher has proved to my satisfaction that there is no one pertof the training whit interest and vitalizes theoretical study so much 88 the constant and dailycontact of the young lndorgartner with the practical problems of applying her theory to real life conditions.

The possible injury done to the children by immature cadet teaching may be minimized by two monthsof observation and discussion at the beginning of the freshman year. If the observation work is-organizedupon a psychological basis, so that it is not mere haphazard obeervation, and the report of each student'sobservation is brought in and discussed with the supervisor, the two months are worth four months ofscattered, interrupted, or undirected observation.

Many of our normal schools complain of the lack of sufficient enthusiasm on the part of their students toincite them to go on with further preparation for their work than that required by the State law. I havefound the exact contrary to be the case, many students making serious sacrifices not only of opportunitiesto take good positions in schools, but of many of the comfort& and conveniences of life In order to pursuea third year of work, which is not required for a diploma. This is because they have realized their limita-tions in practice work in the two-year course. This consciousness of need of more thorough preparationhas come to them through their being able to see the, rewic of their first year's work In their second year.

Coffin; down the life with the children in order that more Theoretic work may be obtained seems toignore tge truth that it is the vitahly of interest which a student takes in a subject that causes him or her

tion be articzdated with courses in child tundrand psychology and-be accredited insuch courses.

4. That it should advocate an organization of work by which some subjectspsychology, science, English, etc.can be studied intensively with several recita-tionll a week, and othersart, physical training, manual exprestion, and AtUfticextended over a Iongei period of time with lets frequent recitations.

5. That the committee should advocate a school day of not more than four periodsof recitation work in subject/I that require an hgur more of preparation; or of twoperiods of recitation work when students 4K Lice teaching, a morning'spractice being considered the equivalent of two n periods, even though it mayconsume more time.

6. That the committee should suggest the tunount,of work in the different subjectsduring the course, but leave the exact amount each year and the place of each in thecourse to the individual school or training teacher.

7. That it should' advocate the use of general educational terms for courses whenadvisable, instead of specific ones intelligible to kindergartners only.

8. That the committee should advocate an increase in the length of the kinder-garten course eventually, but that it should direct its first efforts to the making of amore efficient two-year course by.suggesting a better balance between the differentphases that constitute it, and a better organization of the related subjects as parts of anorganic whole. In the meantimethe committee should formulate a tentative three-year course to be discussed in the near future, and preeented as soon as conditionswarrant.

In addition to these points the committee adopted the followingentrance requirements suggested by the Committee of Nineteen:

1. It is universally conceded that an applicant for admiasion into a kindergartentraining school should have completed her eighteenth year.

2. A diploma from an accredited high school ia generally required. Kindergartentraining schools are advancing to the rank of colleges.

3. The applicant should pociects general culture, fine character, aid native ability.She should, in addition to these qualifications, have a sympathetic attitude towardchildren.

4. A degree of musical ability or endowment and fundamental training in musicis desirable and is required, in the best training schools.

5. A physician's certificate of good health is required.

to master the subject, not the number of hours appointed for the preparation of that subject. Concen.nation pi attention is obtained by,the realization of the need of a subject in mind.

It is this that this reduction of practloe teaching brings us into closer uniformity with the other gradesof advanced school work; but U we have established a more vital way of preparing a young woman (orthe profeako of teaching, shill we give It up because others have not kept pace with It?

Almost all superintendents writing to engage a kindergarten teacher stipulate that she shall bean " ups-" teacher, showing their recognition of the value of much real contact with children. One can

call a student who has had only one year of teaching an " experienced " teacher. I believe the averagetendent estimates that a teaches does not arrive at full efficiency under tour or five years ofexpo.

Menne. How then can she be placed in a position of responsibility over a whole room full of hhildren withmerely one year's week?

Another reason against doing away with ono-half of the contact with the actual lifeelde of our professionIs that the morning practice work Is a constant appeal to the affections and sympathies of the young teacher,such ore does not oome from any textbook or thearetkal work. And surely we who advocate the newerand higher education of the human raos realise that the education of the heart is as much needed as theeducation of the head. If there is any doubt of this, the present European war would cause the doubt tooolkspes. That we need more time for general study I heartily agree, but this should comer= requiringadditional time for preparation rather than from cutting down the moll vital part of the preparation nowrequired toastabffeh in the heart and brain of th young women of our nation the tremendous importanceand significance of the right mothering hi little children.

Section I. Student teaching and observation.While tha observation is listed sepa-rately in order that the number of hoursmay be readily seen, it is the intention that itshall be given in connection with some other subjectchild study, psychology,Mother Play, primary Methods or kindergarten subjectsthus giving it more definitepurpose. The student teaching in the kindergarten is planned for the latter part ofthe first year and the first part of the second year. This, in the opinion of the committee,is the time when it will be the most valuable, but it might be placed altogether in thesecond year, and under some conditions this will be neceetary

The student should spend at least two hours, preferably the entire morning, in theschoolroom and should begin actual teaching as soon as poesible. During the 36 weeksshe should have opportunity to teach each of the subjects and to direct the entirekindergarten. All student teaching should be carefully supervised by the criticteacher.

The committee recognizes that in many training schools it may be difficult or impas-sible to provide for this amount of student teaching, but it recommends it, believingthat this amount will provide the best training.

Section t. General education.Under this head are placed those subjects that inter-pret the general foundations of teaching principles of education, educationalpsychology and child study, and the history of education.

The committee would like to give special importance to the courses in psychologyand child study, to which it is suggested the study of the Mother Play, book shouldbe related. The subject, however, will have little significance in the mind of thestudent unless it is accompanied by actual observation of children and opportunitiesfor some intimate companionship with them. In the history of education it is Butgested that only an introduction to the subject be given, rather than extended study,as it is work that can be ca 'ed so far that it is more suitable for graduate study whengiven intensively.

The major part of the course should be spent on the history of the modern period ofeducation as developed in Europe and America.

Section 3. Xindevarten education.Kindergarten education includes theupecialprofessional subjects that are practical, as well as those that are theoretical. Theamount of time given to these subjects will no doubt vary in different schools, and itis well that it should do so. Uniformity.in detail would be something to be deplored,but the proportion suggested by the committee is on the basis of sufficient actualexperience in the doing of the pieties,' activities to give power, variety, and famili-arity. Paralleling or following these courses a sufficient proportion of theory is plannedto reinforce these with a broad outlook. There is also planned a study of Froebel'sbooks and of those who have interpreted him or have written material which gires

, parallel views. There is freedom here for a deeper study of the Mother Play, so thatthe book may be used not only as en interpretation of children's activities in relationto child study, but also as an expression of the philosophy underlying the system ofIodising (ese.MaeVatinel, Teachers College Record).

Section 4. Related professional subjects.The committee does not desire in a briefoutline liNe this to indicate in much detail the work in these subjects. It offers onlya few explanations and suggestions. In the arts it is suggested that the work will bebroader if the subject cover two phases; first, the study for the sake of personal powerand appreciation and also technique; second, its use in the applied art of teaching.Nature study is listed under the head of natural science. It should be given aoughly scientific foundation and must be given a thoroughly defined place. "Tegames) and physical training should, if poesible, extend throughout the two years andthe same double aspect of the subject should be preserved here.

It might be well if the games were given in connection with physical training;thus avoiding a scattering of subjects and indicating to the student the relation be-tween them. It is suggested that some work for use in playgrounds might be givenand a discussion and consideration of the planning, equipment, and apparatus forplayground for very young children.

The course in child and school hygiene should be made as practicable as possible,giving the genetic point of view and taking up many of the phases of social welfarework, which gives so much value to the relation between the school and the com-munity.

With regard to primary methods, it is not the aim of the committee to give to thestudent training which fits her to be a primary teacher; but it is important that sheshould have some work which develops a sense of perspective and a little experiencewith children in the grade just above that which she expects to teach; eo that the con-trast and wider knowledge may contribute to a more intelligent development of thechildren of kindergarten age.

IV. IDEALS IN KINDERGARTEN TRAINING.

(Report peranted by the Committee of Nineteen of the Internatkonal Inulargortan Union.)

In addition to "Standards of Entrance Requirements" and"Standards for Courses of Study" that have been presented, "Stand-ards in Ideals" underlying the courses of study may be presented aaworthy of the earnest consideration of those engaged in the trainingof the kindergartner.

Page 56: KINDERGARTEN TRAINING - ERIC · Letter of transmittal 4 I. Kindergarten training in retrospect and prospect 5 II. Statistics of kindergarten training schools, 1912-13 10 Table 1

66 _ SINDISGARTEN TRAINING SCHOOLS.

Not the kindergarten technique alone is important, but also thattraining for social work whiohwill influence the home and communitylife of mothers and children. Special studies and lectures should begiven which will assist students in the organization and oonduot ofmothers' clubs and parents' meetings and will enable them to becomeefficient social workers in their communities.

Since the kindergartin is an integral part of the whole of educa-tion, the kindergarten training school should give knowledge of thebest for whioh the primary school stands. It should define theinfluence which the kindergarten prinoiples and practices shouldexercise upon elementary school work.

The kindergarten agencies, the song, games, story, creative self-expre&ion through handwork, have become firmly established in theprimary school. Too often, however, these agencies have been usedwithout the insight into the educational principles they illustrate.

To establish organized connection between the kindergarten andthe elementary grade, it is imperative that the connection be madeby persons familiar with the best practice of the kindergarten andthe best practice of the elementary grade, and thoroughly cognizantof the educational principles underlying these respective practices.

"The teacher is an educator, not merely an instructor."Individual development of body, mind, and character of students

should be earnestly sought, as well as the endeavor to acquire astandard course of study. Training must be given for responsibility,adaptability, efficiency in new situations, and -initiative.

Homes for students have been opened in connection with a fewtraining schools, where the work and social responsibilities are takenup as a part of the daily training for individual development of theyoung women.

Many training schools are applying in their work with studentsthe kindergarten principles and methods, allowing the student todiscover these rather than to take so much upon authority, as hasfrequently been done in the past. If students see these principlesin the nature of the developing child as well as in the Froebelianbooks, they will recognize the value of the authority.

To develop a wise, independent judgment of values, for instance,in songs, games, stories, etc., not only in school work but outside ofschool hours, is an ability which students should acquire.

The development of the religious life of the students should alsoreceive attention equal to that in any good college.

The kindergarten course, to be successful, must develop creativeself-activity in the students.

In standardizing ideals, the Committee of Nineteen agree thateven when certain books are read and studied by all, certain formulawith materials underitood and followed, certain fixed standards of

personality and scholarship attained, the real work of awakeningthe spirit has only begun. The spiritual significance of the workmust be deepened by the elimination of all that is capricious, senti-mental, and superficial.

To develop insight and impart vitality, now that the pioneer days,iare over, is the greatest task of the modern training school.

The following statements were presented by several members ofthe Committee of Nineteen at a meeting held in Cincinnati February25, 1915, and are included this report:

OUTLINE OF IDEALS FUNDAMENTAL IN WORK OF TRAINING CLASS

(Fly Mrs. Amex H. P1M7/11, formerly principal of the training school of the Froebel Kindergarten Am.elation, Chicago.)

Two points of view:(a) Personal development of student as to character, and along lines of the study

and love of art, science, literature, etc., as well as her ca*ity for home-making.

(b) Such training as shall strengthen and develop a wise and,loving attitude towardchildren, which always reacts most favorably on the student's own personality.This must include

(1) A, true respect for child nature and study of child's individuality;(2) Attention to the variations in child nature;(3) Analysis of child's tendencies;(4) Comparative study of groups of children;(5) Some knowledge of the children's home environment;(6).A balanced judgment of their manifestationt

All of this implies much personal contact with children while the student is intraining. Theorizing and psychologizing, however good, are not sufficient. Thetraining school should provide for concrete, though necessarily condensed, experience

in all these points. This implies a training in personal responsibility, which islacking in the average young woman recently graduated from the high school (se wellas in those who come from some homes of the present day). It implies training inefficient adaptability to the situations in which the student may find herself. Itimplies an immediate and practical use of class study in psychology, now perhapsfor the first time reduced to a working basis.

Other means of training in responsibility and efficiency lie in the hoinely dailyduties of the kindergarten, viz, caring for ventilation and neatness of the room, over-sight of the children's personal habits, laws of hygiene, etc., caring for the materialand teaching the children to be responsible for it; attention to time divisions forwork and play, etc.

This implies oversight by the training teacher,of the student's choice of song, story,pictures, gamest material selected outside of the ordinary tools of the kindergarten.She should have such comparative experience now, while she is under guidance, aswill make for a wise,and independent judgment of values, that size may not be ledastray by all that comes to her from the press and other sources labeled "for the kinder-garten." It implies that she have a love for and some knowledge of nature's laws,in order to guide the children in their work with seeds, gardening, care of much domes-tic animals as may be brought to them, etc. It implies an ability to lead the child'sinterest in nature materials, as well as in picture, song, story, etc., to higher levels;an ability to hold him to his beet, in whatever he is doing, without interfering

too much with the child's spontaneous effort to master his own problems, for hisinstinctive curiosity should be led to replace itself by higher mental process whichis still normally childlike.

The training tchool must alio consider to some extent the quedtion"after kinder-garten, what?" Therefore the student should have some knowledge of the beat thatthe elementary school stands for to-day, that children leaving the kindergarten maynot find themselves strangers in a strange land. The training student should be madeto feel that the kindergarten is but part (.f a larger whole, and that its isolation meansweakness if not death.

Out student is a social being as well as an individual, therefore all the vital ques-tions of life are to be, or are now, hers, and she should have help in the art of livingwith her fellows. To this end a "Student's home" seems to be almost a necessaryadjunct to a training school. Out of this closer life with her fellow students will comelagoons that can not be set down in any curriculumfriendships which vitally affectcharacter fcir better, for worse, and many lessons in human nature, in home problems,in self-government, etc.

Nothing has been said definitely about the student's spiritual growth, but if all"religion has relation to life, and the life of religion is to do good," we have a rightto believe that the guiding, controlling, right motive of the student in all that hits.been suggested is the center, the spring from which the higher life may flow.

Here is where the personal human contact between training teacher and studentmay make, or mar, development. It means a course of study and action in which astranger may not meddle, and yet the "motive" ie what gives strength and poise toevery human soul.

Such, in brief, are the Meals for which we should stand, knowing well that everytruth which we inculcate, ifepoken with a right motive at the heart of it, will 'remainand like the 'mist which went up from the earth' will fall again and water the wholeface otthe ground."

IDEALS OP KINDERGARTEN TRAINING SCHOOLS.

(ay LOOT WHULOCC, Principal of the Wheelock Kindergarten Training gohool, Boston, Yam)

I. Environment.Thekindergarten training school should be suitably housed in'light, airy rooms, with appropriate pictures upon the walls, and other reminders ofthe ideals which govern the work with the children. Pleasant surroundings help inthe social atmosphere of the school, and have an effect in determining its efficiency.

II. Numbers. A large training school offers the stimulus of numbers. It makespossible a more perfect democracy. It prevents provincialiBm by bringing studentsinto contact with many others, often from different parts of the country. The horizonof each is widened, and the life of each individual student enriched by interchange ofidesul and contact with different personalities.. The large school secures more espritde carp/ and enthusiasm.

III. Faculty. The faculty of a training school should be sufficiently large to secureIndividual attention for each student.

There should be an expert teacher in all departments and a special teacher forgeneral educational subjects, such as psychology, history of education, and principles'of education.

Special teachers for music, art, handwork, games, and stories should be provided.The supervisor of practice should follow carefully the work of each student andbe ableto judge of her ability in controlling children and of her teaching capacity.

IV. Ourrieulust.The curriculum of the training school should include the generaleducational and special subjects already mentioned, as wellas a careful and continuedstudy of Froebelian literature and Froebelian materials.

Every school owes its students the opportunity to become thoroughly acquaintedwith these Froobelian agencies.

Other materials may be stud ied and used, and the student should become sufficientlyIndependent in her thinking to be able to choose those best adapted to meet her ownconditions as the future may develop them.

Some cultural subject, as literature or ethics, should make a part of the curriculumin order that doors may be opened into a larger life and the students may have helpin their own thinking and a treasury from which to draw. qi

V. Child - study. Child -study should be correlated with psychology and the obeerva-tion of the junior year. The observation should begin with the opening of the courseand continue throughout the year for at least two or three days a week.

The scientific attitude gives the desire to know. 'Knowledge leads to understandingand understanding means sympathy; hence the scientific attitude toward child life.

The ideal for the observation is living with the children according to Froebel'smotto.

The student should be allowed to participate in the games and to becomea part ofthe kindergarten life without taking any direct teaching.

VI. Aim.The students in the kindergarten training school, as well as the childrenin the kindergarten, have a right to the life that now is. They have a right to thenormal relations of life during the two years of training.

No drill, no preparation for dreaded examinations, should take the place of thenormal interest in studies and in child life, which will make an earnest, thorough, andenthusiastic teacher and a lovable woman.

The school is society, and the student in training is already a member of society. Apart of her training is to equip her to meet all the relationships whickt naturally claimher. She should be from the first in sympathetic cooperation with her fellow studentsand teachers.

The curriculum should not be so crowded as to make all social intercourse impossibledining the time of training.

The kindergartner comes into closer relation with the families of the neighborhoodthp any other person; therefore, she is a social worker.

The training course should include a study of sociology, of community problems, ofchild-welfare agencies and racial psychology, so tharthe student on graduation mayfind herself not only perfected in the technique of the system, but ready to meet thedemands that will be made upon her in her neighborhood work.

IDEALS IMPLIED IN STANDARDS OP KINDERGARTEN TRAINING.

(By AucLE. Erne, Principal, School of Kindergarten Education, Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, N. Y.)a.

In the training of the kindergartner, or child educator, Froebelian educationalideals should take precedence. They should be taken into consideration in arrangingthe curriculum, in determining the relation of subject to subject and in the order inwhich experiences are given to the student.

The kindergartner is to become an educator, not merely an instructor, and shouldexperience the meaning of self-education and self-knowledge. She should have, inkfar as possible, first-hand experiences of life prior to theorizing about them. The plan,of the training school should be such that it may furnish opportunities for assumingresponsibilities, for fulfilling duties, for taking the initiative, for self-government,for meeting new problems, and for culture and general efficiency. Wherever possible,homes should be opened in connection with the training school, so that students

and of socialresponaibilities, and learn to adapt themselves to each others' differing ideals of living.

As the held of the kindergartner is a wide one, covering work with mothers as wellas children, of all races, classes, and creeds, some general soeiologicatiutlookis imper-ative. The student must become familiar with existing conditions of life in thehomes of her children, and with the modern agencies for the betterment and educationof these people. Lectures on related topics, and opportunities to visit settlements,institutions, and schools should be given to all student kindergartners.

The varying physical conditions found in children of kindergarten age, togetherwith the prevalence of contagious diseases, make it important for provision to be madefor students to become acquainted with normal physical standards and the tests fordetermining them. Therefore, observation of children in any way departing from thenormal should be made, and some training given in making taste of individuals, sothat normal conditions may be recognized and sustained.

The agencies 4a. creative self-expression of the students should be the excursions,plays, games and rhythms, songs, stories, gifts, and occupatidns of the kindergarten,together with such knowledge of their wider application in music, art, science, andliterature as may be necessary to increase the students' appreciation and culture.

As the work of the kindergartner rests upon an understanding of nature and herprocesses it is of paramount importance that she be placed at some time during hercourse inns environment that will enable her to come in sympathetic touch with allphases of life in nature, especially through participating in the nurture of plants andanimals. The next step which naturally follows ia this gained power of observationand nurture transferred to children. Students should have ample opportunity toobserve all phases of child life, especially manifestations of individual children, andto become responsible for their physical care, as well as for their education. Whilelove for children is what sustains the kindergartner through the patient painstaking

IDEALS IN KINDERGARTEN TRAINING. 61

necessary to nurture, yet only through the following of principles can she hope to makeher work truly educative. A sympathetic attitude is the basis for understanding, butis not enough; she must be guided by definite educational principles. These she willfind in Froebel'e writings, in modern child study, and psychology.

The aim of the kindergarten training is the harmonious development of body andmind in relation to the soul. Spiritual ideas must be placed before the student; shemust become aware of the fact that these can be realized in life, and that only thosethings are worth while which have eternal value.

As the kindergarten is to become an integral part of IL whole of education, thetraining schools for kindergartners should give definite knowledge as to the aims of theprimary school, its methods and means, and the poesible relation it bears to the kinder-garten. Students should see how the educational principles at work in the kindergar-ten may be further defined and carried out as the child's education advances in theschool. They should see that, as mutual understanding of principle comes to kinder-gartner and teacher alike, antagonisms cease, and that they then will find themselvesin company with the many others who are striving for the eternal goal of truth.

While this broader aspect of kindergarten education is an ideal that may not beimmediately realized, it is in accordance with those principles enunciated by Fred=crick Froebel 75 years ago. With renewed insight into the needs of humanity thatmodern life shows us, we can not expect to train its leaders of education in a short time;thONfore, two years would hardly suffice fer realization of these ideals in the trainingof the kindergartner.

IDEALS TO BE REALIZED IN KINDERGARTEN TRAIN-MG.

(By NINA C. VANDICWALIZR, Head 91 KIndergarteu Departmentetate Normal School, Milwaukee, Wb.)

If the conception of education which the kindgrgarten embodies is to be realizedthrough its work, the kindergarten training teacher must be guided by certain idealsin organizing and carrying out a course for the training of kindergartners. Since theright kind of kindergarten work requires certain inborn qualities, the training teachersheik' encourage only young women of earnest purpose, natural adaptation to littlechildren, good intellectual insight, and musical and artistic ability to enter the course.

Because the demands of work with little children are varied, the course must pro-vide for the different kinds of demands. The student requires knowledge alongseveral lines as the basis for her work. She needs to gain an insight into the child'sprogressive development and the educational needs to width that development givesrise. She needs an acquaintance with the instrumentalities of education appropriateto the different stages, and the methods of using them effectively. She needs a knowl-edge of nature, of art, of music, and of literature, since these are agencies for the child'sdevelopment in the home, the kindergarten and the school alike. To hive the prospec-tive kindergartner the knowledge to make her work intelligent in these and other linesmust therefore be one of the training teacher's'ideals.

If the kindergarten course is properly organized, however, this knowledge will havebeen acquired as a means to.an end, that of using it to further children's development.The course must therefore provide opportunity for experience withchildren of differ-ent types and ages, in the different phases of kindergarten work, and under sufficientguidance to insure success. To lead young women to success in furthering children'sdevelopment is to lead them to the evolution and mastery of their own souls, a resultoften bought. with a price by both students and training teacher. To being about thedevelopment in students that will enable their work with children to reach the planeof art is another of the training teacher's ideals.

To give the prospective kindergartner the command of her own resources that willenable her to realize the ideals of the kindergarten in a fair degree is to accomplish the:

main purpose of kindergarten tpining. That training has not accomplished its fullpurpose, however, unIstis it has given h 1' the abiding interest in her work that only anexalted conception of life can give. The conception which the kindergarten embodiesis the root from which such an interestgrows and tht; literature which embodies it musttherefore form a part of the kindergarten course. It is from this mainly that kinder-gartners have received the impulse toward the realization of a larger life for them-selves?the life of service-to the mother° of theirchildren, to the school of which thechildren form a part, and to the community in its various forms of cooperative effort.To give students the knowledge needed for effective work with little children, to assistthem in developing skill in carrying on their chosen work in all its phases, and toinspire them to a fuller realization of the meaning of life in its varied relationshipsthese are some of the ideals to be realized in training kindergartners.
