So alsoaxethe principles of learn- ing. Some leArning is gained through books,some from* people,somethrough, observation, much through first-hand experience. Chapter I describesatypicalyoungboy's in- troduction to the curriculum.Chapter II gives examples of curricular activities which belong to the everyday lives of children in different places. Chapter III contains suggestions to help teachers discover leads to the kind of curricular activities described in the precedingchapter.Chapter IV contains steps for improvement of curriculum in line with the problems andresourcesof the place where the children live.
