Excerpt from Exercises for the Improvement of the Senses: For Young Children The Exercises have been put in the form of ques tions, because the teacher will frequently have occa sion to make use of that form in leading the pupil to an accurate examination of nature, and because that form will indicate most brie y the course which it will be most frequently found advisible to pursue.
