Success will depend entirely on the effort to 'put yourself in his place.' I have done my best in these books to help the teacher in this respect. But though it be easier to some than to others, it is in some degree possible to all, and the interest of the lesson largely depends on it. They feel their cheeks flushing and their eyes growing moist as they project themselves involuntarily into the scene before them. You know the meaning of the expression, 'Put yourself in his place.' Practice that in every Bible story, using your imagination, living in the scene, experiencing, as far as you can, every feeling of the actors. Read not only commentaries, but books that will give local interest and colour-books that will throw valuable sidelights on your sketch.īut more than reading is necessary. Therefore do not content yourself with merely studying the teaching of this series. Yet, after considerable experience of teachers whose lesson was a weariness to the flesh, and of teachers who never lost attention for a moment, I am convinced, on the whole, that the power to interest largely depends on the previous preparation. I know some have more aptitude for teaching than others. After all, there is little use in knowing the facts of your subject, and being anxious about the souls of the pupils, if all the time that you are teaching, these pupils are yawning and taking no interest in what you say. Most of the complaints of inattention would cease at once if the teacher would give more study to rousing their interest. Believe me, it is no waste of time to spend hours during the week in planning to excite their interest to the utmost. It is not a minor matter and the pupils will soon let you know it. Some teachers seem to think that to interest the pupil is a minor matter. I want especially to insist on attention to this rule.

I have not written out the teaching in full as a series of readings which could be read over to the child without effort or thought. Then night after night go on with the teaching, taking as much or as little as one sees fit. I should advise that on the first night only the Scripture indicated should be read, with some passing remarks and questions to give a grip of the story. For these each chapter is divided into short sections. They need only small portions, brief little lessons of about ten minutes each night. For Parents who would use it in teaching their children at home. Let each do what seems best in his particular case, only taking care to satisfy his conscience that it is not done through laziness, and that he can really do best for his class by the plan which he adopts.Ģ. To some it may be a burden to keep the details of a long lesson in the memory and, provided the subject has been carefully studied, the Lesson Book, with its salient remarks carefully remarked in coloured pencil, may be a considerable help. But I would lay down no rigid rule about the use of the Lesson Book.

The lesson should be thoroughly studied and digested beforehand, with all the additional aides at his disposal, and it should come forth at the class warm and fresh from his own heart and brain. He should make copious notes of the subject. As a general rule I think the teacher should not bring the book at all to his class if he is capable of doing without it. Where feasible there should be diligent use of commentaries and of any books indicated in the notes. For these each book is divided into complete lessons. For teachers in Week Day and Sunday Schools.
