Industrial work for the middle grades

About this book

The purpose of this book is to suggest problems in industrial work to teachers of the fourth and fifth grades. These projects are planned to be executed in a regular classroom, without elaborate equipment and of a variety of types so as to appeal to both boys and girls. The projects increase in complexity, and can be employed profitably in the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. If carried out systematically, these projects will lay a foundation for advanced shop work, and aid in solving many practical problems encountered in the school and home.
