Excerpt from Gymnastic Exercises for Elementary Schools: Supplemented by Fancy Steps and GamesIn selecting and arranging the material for this book, I have tried to meet the demand especially of those teachers who are being more and more called upon to add to their curriculum this branch of physical education, namely, gymnastics.Several years of experience in elementary grades and in normal teaching have shown what the grade teacher, as well as the normal pupil, would find essential and helpful in teaching gymnastics. A teacher's text-book to meet the general needs must be of such a nature that the simple and combined movements which it describes may be easily understood and accurately reproduced. This is provided for by definite descriptions of all movements, positions, and combinations, and by illustrations of many of the fundamental positions.The use of technical terms is reduced to a minimum.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
