Sloyd: Educational Manual Training | by Everett Schwartz

The object of this book is to give to teachers a complete system of work, based upon purely educational principles, extending from the kindergarten through the high school; a system that has been tried with success in some of the best schools, and pronounced most excellent by leading educators of the country; a system, too, that the best educated mechanics consider sound and practical as well as progressive. Moreover, it is a system that will set teachers to thinking and inventing for themselves; and, while it will give them an opportunity to learn how to make correctly with tools the models preparatory to teaching, it will cause them to see the vital connection between the Manual Training and the other school work.
