Excerpt from Junior Home Economics FoodThis text is designed as a beginning text in foods to be used with pupils soon after they enter the period of secondary edu cation. That is, these units are to be among the early educational experiences that have as their chief purpose the adjustment of pupils to some of the materials, ideas, and situations that constitute living. It is organized in units as described by Dr. H. C. Morrison in The Practice of Teaching in the Secondary Schools.1 The organization, point of view, and numerous devices resulted largely from teaching in the Labortory Schools of the University of Chicago. However, a wide variety of experiences afforded contributions.The sequence of the units as given is considered advisable under some conditions, under others it may be disregarded. Experience has shown that a positive attitude toward particular foods is economically furthered when pupils prepare these foods themselves. If pupils have had no experience with food preparation, it is well to have the nutrition unit follow the one on preparation. Otherwise too much attention would be diverted to preparation to the detriment of the nutrition learn ings. In addition, knowledge of the ingredients of various dishes as gained in the preparation unit is of positive assistance in nutritional evaluations. As will be noted, family marketing is based on nutritional requirements. Consequently, it is essential that pupils taking up the unit on marketing have nutri tional understandings. The learnings gained from the prepara tion unit are also important in making marketing intelligible.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
