The Goose Quill

Excerpt from The Goose Quill<br><br>A committe of Boston teachers was appointed by the Superintendent for the purpose of suggesting and contributing material for a Third Grade Syllabus. About fifteen hundred copies of the Syllabus were printed.<br><br>As chairman of the English committee and as editor of the Syllabus, it has been my wish that this contribution to the teaching of English might find its way outside of Boston and into the hands of many teachers throughout the country.<br><br>In order to extend the work still further, I have adapted and enlarged the lessons contained in the Syllabus, and I have made numerous additions and some changes with the idea of creating a book that can be used independently by the children.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
