What specific part and responsibility do you give the members in this matter? Is it possible that you could plan to use their help more fully and effectively? 4. Suppose you try making a list of all the different lines of participation in religious activities directly opened up to the pupils of your class by the church and the church school. Is the list as long as it should be? What further provision could be made for the children to have definite responsibility and activity? 5. Do you think that your pupils are becoming increasingly inclined to look upon religion as a _mode of living?_ For example, will your children be more agreeable, responsive, obedient, and helpful in the home next week for the lessons you have been teaching them? Will they have higher standards of conduct in the school and on the playground? FOR FURTHER READING Dewey, Moral Principles in Education. Sharp, Education for Character. |
