good for pupils who have already

‘Teafihefs ¢Qfl- lhad in mind the correct form only.

Then the incorrect form might side-track them. But if children ‘ to tracer-met ..ressions" rather than m comet ones. there is nothing wrong in

caning special attention to it. as a warning impressing its wrongness, and showing the children the corr- ect form which should take its place. It is quite noticeable that most children use a variety of in- correct expressions that are correct everywhere. Consequently in teach- ing language it would be well to have ‘what might be called “The tabooed list." Children should then be induced -to free themselves of such expressions. Some expressions in commoon use are: He don't know nothing; he had went at that time; I see him yesterday; He clone that easily; He learned me to swim. The psychological mom- ent for teaching a language fact is a moment when the corresponding error is occurring or when a new processe. g. letter writing is begun and the teacher is deairious of gett- ing things started correctly. so that errors will not occur. At those points the pupils will see the rela- tion of the language facts to Itheir immediate problems.

The meeting then adjourned to meet at 1.30 P. M.

In the afternoon the first speak-

,ent school fair centres met in groups for discussion. The last speaker of ‘the morning session was Mr. Gordon Darrach who read a paper on the Fundamentals of El- ementary Language Work which is as follows.— . mTxe ‘object of language‘ ulroxrk is ac correct, gramme. ca orms and Ithe object’ of Crammer is to explain why they are correct. The home is the chief agency in teach- in language. Habits of expression fo med in childhood are likely to iremain with us through life. For- tunate. indeed is ‘the child who has been taught to speak correctly at home and extremely unfortunate is ‘the child who has been brought up in, adhomg wléelifteghe language is a use an mu . The next important agency is the ‘school. The school takes hold of gthe child after his language habits have ‘been finely] established. We carino expec »t e school to do everything but We do expect it to do much in teaching a knowledge of the language, and the art of ex- pression. Language is used to ex- press our thoughts and as such is |used in every lesson. So that langu- |age should be a close second to the ‘subject being studied. There area sufficient number of occasions to teach correct language in connec- tion lléltll other subjeicts so that a » separa e anguage c ass is not rikecessalry. bllctrarly all subjects/lend emse ves h to-erai and written rgcitaligion. I; t fact all teachers s ou see t ‘a the two habits of oral and written expressionshould be cultivated equally well. Some peolple are able to speak fluently an unable to write well. Others ,can write well and yet could not speak to a public audience. The written recitation. I am sure all have given a topic for a. com- position- and have found that the SWANSEA‘ wales.
