Excerpt from The Boys' and Girls' Republic: Text-Book of the Art of CitizenshipRepublic method of teaching citizenship, with excel lent results and constant delight to the little citizens and themselves.Our first systematic experiment with democracy in a public school was in the form of a municipality and was called the School City. There was much published about it, and teachers in every direction used the method. Since then, we have used many forms of democratic government, such as those of a village, town, county, state and federal government, and we now use the term Republic, as that covers all the various forms.All of the several text-books that have been written to aid in the use of the laboratory or School Republic method of teaching citizenship are out of print, and this book is written to meet the immediate and growing demand for such a text-book. I have aimed to give in it such information as is needed by the oldest students to whom the privilege to use the method may come. At the same time I have endeavored to make it so simple that it may be used as a text-book in all grammar grades, and I trust that primary and kindergarten teachers will find in it the aid they need in steering the ships of state of their little republics.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
