Human consciousness comes into the world as a flaming ball of imagination.  Everything invented by man, physical or mental, is the fruit of someone’s imagination.  In the study of history and geography we are helpless without imagination, and when we propose to introduce the universe to the child, what but imagination can be of use to us?  I consider it a crime to present such subjects as may be noble and creative aids of the imaginative faculty in such a manner as to deny its use, and on the other hand to require the child to memorize that which he has not been able to visualize.  These subjects must be presented so as to touch the imagination of the child, and make him enthusiastic, and then add fuel to the burning fire that has been lit.

 

The secret of good teaching is to regard the child’s intelligence as a fertile field in which seeds may be sown, to grow
