Painting on Ceramic Tiles
The materials of which houses are built were mentioned,-stone, brick, wood; the different kinds of wood; nails, and where they were made; lime, and whence it came, &c. &c. When the teacher touched upon points with which the children were supposed to be acquainted, he asked questions; when he passed to subjects beyond their sphere, he gave information, intermingling the whole with lively remarks and pleasant anecdotes.And here one important particular should not be omitted. In this, as well as in all other schools, a complete answer was always required. For instance, if a teacher asks, ‘ What are houses made of?’ he does not accept the answer, ‘of wood’ or ‘ of stone;’ but he requires a full, complete, (vollstandig) answer ;-as, ‘a house may be made of wood.’ The answer must always contain an intelligible proposition without reference to the words of the question to complete it . And here ulso the greatest care is taken that the ceramic wall tile answer shall always be grammatically correct, have the right termination of all articles, adjectives and nouns, and the right grammatical transpositions according to the idioms and structure of the language. This secures from the beginning, precision in the expression of ideas; and if, as many philosophers suppose, the intellect could never carry forward its processes of argument or investigation to any great extent, without using language as its instrument, then these children, in their primary lessons, are not only led to exercise the intellect, but the instrument is put into their hands by which its operations are facilitated.When the hour had expired, I do not believe there was a child in the room who knew or thought that his play-time had come. No observing person can be at a loss to understand how such a teacher can arrest and retain the attention of his scholars. It must have happened to almost every one, at some time in his life, to be present as a member of a large assembly, when some speaker, in the midst of great uproar and confusion, has arisen to address it. If, in the very commencement of his exordium, he makes what is called a happy hit, which is answered by a response of laughter or applause from those who are near enough to hear it, the attention of the next circle will be aroused. If, then, the speaker makes another felicitous sally of wit or imagination, this circle, too, becomes the willing subject of his power; until, by a succession of flashes whether of genius or of wit, he soon brings the whole audience under his command, and sways it as the sun and moon sway the tide. This is the result of talent, of attainment, and of the successful study both of men and tile outlet of things; and whoever has a sufficiency of these requisites will be able to command the attention of children, just as a powerful orator commands the attention of men. But the one, no more than the other, is the unbought gift of nature. They are the rewards of application and toil superadded to talent .Now it is obvious that in the single exercise above described, there were the elements of reading, spelling, writing, grammar and drawing, interspersed with anecdotes and not a little general information: and yet there was no excessive variety, nor were any incongruous subjects forcibly brought together. There was nothing to violate the rule of ‘ one thing at a time.’” pp. 117-18-19.One great point is gained by this mode of teaching young children. The ceramic tile instructor, without making any extraordinary effort to do so, secures and sustains their attention,-hitherto considered one of the most difficult of arts. The subjects of the lesson are such as are calculated to interest and amuse the mind of the little learner.
