GAMES

This course is offered as the natural complement of the courses
given in music, story telling and physical training. The course will
be divided into two heads; organized school room games and exercises—action
stories from literature, nature study, industry, civic life
and history, marches, etc., development of games through the interests
and play activities of children; and folk games and dances,
illustrated by English, German, Swedish, French and American singing
games and dances, and their racial and national significance and
recreative and social uses. Games will be played on the Lawn, Monday,
Wednesday and Friday evenings. Sections I and II will consist
of games and folk dances for elementary teachers suitable for
all grades; Section III will consist of theory and practice of play,
games, and folk dances for advanced students who have already received
