Reseña del editor

The aim of this book is to supply, or to suggest, to the teachers of adult New Americans in the evening schools material wherewith to teach their pupils in a reasonably short time, and in a practicable manner, to speak, read, and write the English language. The primacy of the need to converse is especially recognized and considered. This need ismet by training the pupils in the correct use of the words, expressions, and sentences that are interwoven with their environments. Instruction begins with object lessons pertaining to objects and interests in the schoolroom, and these are appropriately followed with lessons involving consideration of vocational matters, the home, and other conditions and interests in the life of a New A merican. These lessons are all constructed with the main purpose of using thern as drills for conversation, the teacher being reminded at every lesson to use text for conversation. Examples of questions, to be put to the pupils, are given occasionally, illustrating the method of introducing and encouraging conversation covering the texts.
