Sinossi
Excerpt from Map Modeling in Geography: Including the Use of Sand, Clay, Putty, Paper Pulp, Plaster of Paris, and Other Materials
All the elements of geographical science are found near every schoolhouse; therefore the home district should be studied first. Ritter Says, Wherever our home is, there lie all the materials that we need for the study'of the entire globe.
The available language of geography can alone render these home elements valuable and modern educators are almost unani mous in the claim that Speech, modeling, pictures, sketches, and maps form the primal language of the science. These symbols, however, are of use only when they fix a mental picture of the thing represented, and do not fix attention upon themselves. Through the constructive phase of the imagination, unseen places and peoples must be brought vividly before the mind, and the pupils may then translate them into the language of models, chalk models, pictures, and maps.
