Excerpt from An Outline of Progressive Lessons in Composition, Language, and Spelling for the Fourth Grade The methods in composition, language, and spelling for the third and fourth grades offered in this preface are the result of several years of supervision of the work in the Elementary Department of the State Normal School at San Francisco. The success of the methods presented justifies the confidence with which the texts are sent forth. The eagerness with which teachers have received the methods at various institutes at which they have been presented and their reported success, when they have been faithfully tried, give further assurance of their merit from the standpoint of application to the common needs of the public schools, graded and ungraded.
