NATURE STUDY AND SCHOOL GARDENS.
Professor Davis.
The Nature Study will be given a practical side, and so conducted as to be
chiefly useful to teachers of primary and intermediate grades. Many of the lessons
will be illustrated by use of school gardens at the summer school. How to make
the best use of school gardens will thus be shown. A model school garden is conducted
at the north end of the terrace between East Lawn and East Range. New
subjects, not usually considered in the school gardens, will be introduced.
Other nature lessons will deal with wild flowers, grains, grasses, crops, birds,
insects, fish, minerals and other objects suitable for the school room.
Daily, from 3:30 to 4:30. Rotunda, Room 1.
