-Introduction
-
-
-Ability to draw easily and well on the blackboard is a power which
-every teacher of children covets. Such drawing is a language which
-never fails to hold attention and awaken delighted interest.
-
-It has been considered impossible for most of us, because we have never
-done it. It has been strongly recommended, but no one has really shown
-us how.
-
-A book like this which does show how, step by step, from the first
-practice strokes to completed and effective sketches, will be
-everywhere welcome. No one can follow the plain suggestions given
-without appreciating the possibilities of chalk and charcoal for
-ordinary school-room illustration, and finding in himself a steady
-development of power to sketch on the blackboard.
-
-The book is not the product of theories about drawing, but the fruit
-of long experience of one who has drawn with and for children and
-students and teachers, and has been more successful than any one I know
-in inspiring them by that means. I welcome the book and predict for
-it a potent influence for increasing and improving blackboard drawing
-throughout the schools of the land.

-Author’s Introduction
-
-
-This collection of blackboard sketches and the accompanying text has
-been planned at the request of many teachers and pupils who desire
-lessons and suggestions along this line, but who are unable to secure
-personal instruction.
-
-In general, these requests have been for simple sketches dealing with
-the various lines of school work, and at the same time for strokes and
-explicit directions for using these in the drawings. For these reasons
-there are given upon nearly every plate the strokes of the chalk useful
-in producing the desired effect, and upon the opposite page such
-directions as are generally given to the students in the classroom.
-
-A few of the lessons deal with the strokes and their application to the
-very simplest objects possible, but even these may be found useful as
-illustrative material. They are recommended in order that the teacher
-may become familiar with the medium, and with the simplest and the most
-direct manner of handling it before attempting sketches which require a
-great variety of touches. I have tried to have the other sketches cover
-as great a variety of subjects as possible.
-
-Plates 3, 5, 8, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 22, 23 and 29 have been
-used with the little people in different forms of stories, language
-and reading lessons. Plates 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 18, 27, 28 and 29 are
-suggested for geography lessons in various grades. Plates 8, 14, 15,
-16, 17, 18, 27, 28 and 29 may be used in history lessons. Plates 1
-and 3 have been used in primary numbers, and plates 27 and 28 for
-arithmetic, when the problems had to do with commission, measurement,
-etc., or when the problems referred to lumbering or manufacturing.
-Plates 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27 and 28
-will be found helpful in many lines of nature study, especially when
-the nature specimens are difficult to obtain. Plates 9, 24, 25 and
-26 illustrate the value of this line of drawing in the study of
-literature; and many of the other drawings may be used in a similar
-manner. The teacher who uses this type of illustrative sketching will
-readily see how the drawings may be applied to other subjects.
-
-Teachers have occasionally asked for illustrations for the different
-months of the school year, something to use with calendars, or for
-different holiday drawings. Several sketches given on the plates are
-suitable for the various months. For calendars I suggest discarding the
-plaided pumpkin for November, the numbered bricks in a fireplace for
-December, the kite covered with numbered squares for March, etc., etc.
-A regular numbered calendar may be used, with an appropriate sketch
-above or at one side. See Plate 13, goldenrod. The holiday itself
-should suggest the character of the sketch.
-
-Although these sketches are recommended as illustrations for certain
-subjects, it is not intended that the teacher should merely copy these
-drawings, but that she should be able to appropriate these strokes,
-enlarge upon them, and apply them in illustrations for the particular
-subjects she is teaching; and there are many subjects which require
-just this sort of expression on the part of the teacher.
-
-“Children are not all ears; they take in more through the eyes than in
-any other way.”
-
-Since all teachers know this is true, they should realize the
-usefulness of illustration on the blackboard.
-
-A few moments now and then devoted to the practice of these strokes,
-and frequent application of them, will enable the teacher better to
-express and emphasize certain facts, details, or incidents connected
-with a lesson; better to hold the interest and attention of the
-class, and more readily to create an interest in drawing. She will
-thus, by example, lead the children to make the drawing a natural and
-spontaneous means of expression.

-
-
-PLATE 1
-
-
-For the first lesson I advise trying the simplest possible stroke, and
-its application in the sketching of very simple things. The stroke is a
-straight mark with the side of the chalk.
-
-Take half or two-thirds of a stick of chalk, discard the small end, and
-use such a piece in nearly all the lessons given. In this case place
-the chalk horizontally upon the board, and drag it gradually downward,
-keeping an even pressure upon the chalk. Try this in various directions.
-
-The oblique lines show what a variety of width may be obtained by
-changing the angle of the chalk. At 1, the full length of the chalk
-is required to give the broad stroke desired. At Nos. 2, 3, 4 and 5,
-the line above the stroke indicates the angle at which the chalk is
-placed in order to give the width of the strokes below. The use of the
-chalk in this manner enables one to obtain any desired width of line,
-without constantly changing the piece of chalk. A light or dark tone is
-produced by varying the pressure upon the chalk.
-
-In drawing the telegraph pole, draw first a delicate vertical stroke,
-then add the horizontal cross pieces with a stronger accent, and last
-the white strokes indicating thickness.
-
-In the case of the chicken coop, draw first the oblique slats, then
-with a stronger pressure upon the chalk, add the horizontal slats, and
-lastly, with the point of the chalk add the accented bits of detail.
-
-Almost any simple object composed of straight lines may be drawn in
-this manner.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 2]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 2
-
-
-The strokes upon this plate are more often used than any others which
-will be given in these lessons. These strokes are made by holding the
-chalk by one end rather than in the middle, and then by drawing in any
-direction desired, letting the pressure come at the end of the chalk,
-thus giving a graded stroke from side to side. For example, stroke 1
-was made by taking about two-thirds of a stick of chalk, holding it by
-the left end, placing it horizontally upon the board, and then drawing
-downward, accenting a little with the left end of the chalk. Stroke 5
-was made in a similar manner, the chalk being held by the right end,
-and the pressure being also at that end.
-
-Practice these strokes in many directions, and then apply them to
-drawing some simple objects. On the plate the cylinder, barrel, and
-canoe are illustrated to show the application of such simple marks.
-
-In the cylinder, strokes 1 and 5 are used for the left and right
-outlines; then three curving strokes will finish the top and bottom.
-
-In sketching the barrel, use similar strokes, curving them a bit. Add
-curving strokes for the hoops, using a short piece of chalk; then add
-markings here and there with the point for details.
-
-The canoe is one long, nearly horizontal stroke accented at the upper
-end of the chalk. A few small touches similar to those at 3 will give
-the rocky shore, and a line or two with the point, the necessary
-details.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 3]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 3
-
-
-The lesson planned at illustration 3 is useful in a number of school
-lessons in the lower grades. I have seen it used in teaching reading in
-the first grade. In this case, some word from the lesson was written
-upon each apple, and the children were asked to see how many apples
-they could gather and put into the basket; in other words, to see how
-many words they could read. When a word was recognized, it was erased.
-Again, it has been successfully used in teaching number, form, etc. See
-also the ladder, plate 10.
-
-Stroke 1 is made by placing the chalk upon the board in a vertical
-position and then drawing it across the board, varying the pressure
-frequently so as to give the effect seen in the basket. The strokes at
-2 are produced in the same manner. Here the light spots in the stroke
-are alternated, coming beneath the dark spots in the stroke above. Try
-a number of these in the curving direction suggested at 2.
-
-In making a sketch of a basket, draw lightly the elliptical top, then
-add as many strokes as are necessary to give the desired depth, and
-lastly add the handle. Strokes 3, and the ellipse below them, show the
-manner of producing this effect. Place the chalk horizontally at the
-top of the basket, decide where the handle should end at the opposite
-side, then draw upward with a heavy stroke, across the top lightly,
-then downward with a slight pressure. Keep the chalk in a horizontal
-position throughout the stroke. Add a line of accent to the nearest
-edge of the handle.
-
-The tree trunk back of the basket is drawn with strokes 1 and 5, plate
-2, the stroke being curved a bit at the lower end. The grass is added
-by the use of stroke 5, which is made by using a short piece of chalk,
-and by moving the hand rapidly up and down. A little accent may be used
-occasionally.
-
-In drawing the apples study stroke 4. These are made like those on
-plate 2, by accenting with the end of the chalk. Use a very short
-curving stroke, first toward the left, then toward the right. Add
-stems, etc., with the point of the chalk.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 4]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 4
-
-
-Lesson 4 introduces a stroke entirely different from those already
-given, and one which will require more practice in order to obtain the
-desired results and to apply it readily in quick sketches.
-
-Stroke 1 is made by placing the chalk in a horizontal position upon
-the board, and drawing it downward, gradually twisting it to the
-vertical position. Stroke 2 is the exact opposite. Place the chalk
-vertically upon the board, draw it downward and gradually twist it to
-the horizontal position.
-
-In drawing strokes 3 and 4, combine those already given at 1 and 2. For
-3, place the chalk vertically, draw it downward, quickly twisting it
-to the horizontal position; then, without removing it from the board,
-bring it back to the vertical position. Try stroke 4, beginning with
-the horizontal position of the chalk, twisting it to the vertical, then
-back again to the horizontal position.
-
-Stroke 5 shows a curving effect produced in the same manner as stroke
-3, but with a curving instead of a vertical tendency.
-
-In drawing the cat tails, use strokes 1 and 5 on plate 2. These are
-slightly curved at the upper and lower ends. Keep some of them very
-delicate, others quite white. The leaves are drawn by using strokes 1,
-2, and 3, on plate 4. Let the tone desired in the drawing govern the
-pressure used upon the chalk.
-
-The palms are drawn by using the same strokes. Draw first very
-delicately with the side of the chalk, then with strokes 1, 2 or 3 add
-stronger strokes for accent.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 5]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 5
-
-
-A new stroke will be introduced for this lesson. It is a regular or
-irregular curve as the case may require, and is useful in all sorts of
-nature drawing.
-
-First try the long curving stroke No. 1, accenting with the left end
-of the chalk. Reverse the stroke, accenting with the right end of the
-chalk. Now try No. 2, making a series of nearly parallel strokes,
-keeping the accent at the left.
-
-The pumpkin is drawn by combining these strokes, varying the pressure
-to obtain the desired tone, and accenting with the left end of the
-chalk, then reversing the stroke for the right side of the pumpkin. Add
-the stem by the use of a few irregular strokes and a bit of accent.
-
-Stroke 3 may be used in drawing any large leaves, such as squash,
-grape, etc. Try this in a great variety of positions, always keeping
-the accent for the edge of the leaf. Apply this in drawing the grape
-foliage in the illustration below. Draw first the mid-rib and then
-represent the surface of the leaf by using stroke 3. The grapes are
-added by the use of stroke 4, which is stroke 1 very much reduced. Let
-the grapes be drawn with a short, quick twist of the chalk. Lastly add
-stems and accent.
-
-Almost any vegetables may be drawn after a little practice of the
-strokes given at 5. These are made exactly like stroke 1, with changes
-in direction. Try a single onion or carrot, then a group of vegetables.
-Do these as simply as possible, obtaining the effect, if you can, with
-three or four strokes, then add a few touches for details.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 6]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 6
-
-
-The strokes given in this lesson, although not used as frequently as
-those previously given, are nevertheless valuable.
-
-No. 1 shows the manner in which the stroke is produced. Place a piece
-of chalk in the position indicated by the line below the stroke,
-then swing the chalk rapidly back and forth, shortening the stroke
-and gradually twisting the chalk to the vertical position. No. 2 is
-produced in the same manner. Place the chalk obliquely as indicated,
-and keep the movement oblique, shortening the stroke, and twisting the
-chalk gradually to the horizontal position.
-
-The fern is drawn by first sketching a few main lines, No. 3, and then
-upon these apply the strokes given as shown at No. 4. Hardly touch the
-board at first, keeping the tones very gray; then add a few white ferns
-as in the sketch.
-
-No. 6 illustrates the same stroke used in a much bolder fashion and in
-a generally horizontal direction. After applying this stroke, accent
-here and there with a much shorter stroke, and add the trunk and
-branches.
-
-Study the trees given on plate 12 in connection with this illustration
-and notice the variety of strokes given for the different trees.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 7]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 7
-
-
-In this lesson we will put to practical use such strokes as those given
-in the first few lessons. The sketches of this character are often
-valuable in the schoolroom when studying the mountains, the hillside,
-the river, etc., and the teacher who, with a few strokes of the chalk,
-can interpret to her class the thing about which they are studying, and
-can make an illustration which the whole class can see and appreciate,
-has an invaluable gift.
-
-Experiment with the strokes given at 1, 2 and 3. As in previous lessons
-the side of the chalk is used, and the accent is with one end. Try to
-give the effect of snow, of rocks, of a bright day, or of a cloudy
-day, by varying the tone or pressure upon the chalk. Sometimes use
-the chalk for sky, leaving the board for the hills. Then reverse the
-stroke, letting the sky remain gray and using the chalk to represent
-the mountain, accenting with the upper end of the chalk. No. 3 is a
-combination of 1 and 2, the chalk being used in both sky and mountain.
-In No. 4, the eraser or a soft bit of cloth is used to take out the
-trees after the chalk has been applied.
-
-In the sketch given on the lower part of the plate combine the
-suggestions given above. A few short, curving strokes with the usual
-accent at one end of the crayon will give the rocks, and the irregular
-horizontal and zigzag strokes already given will produce the ripples in
-the river, and the foreground.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 8]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 8
-
-
-In the exercise illustrated on the opposite page you will find
-combinations of the strokes already given, but they are varied somewhat
-in rendering these drawings. Any sketch or object to be drawn should
-dictate the kind of stroke to be used and the manner of handling the
-chalk, the pressure, accent, etc.
-
-For the larger sketch, draw first the tree trunks as shown at No 1. Let
-the pressure be as gentle as possible, the chalk hardly touching the
-board. After these are massed in the background, erase a triangular
-spot for the wigwam, and with the oblique strokes 2, accented first at
-the left, then at the right, obtain the general form required. Stroke
-3 is added at the top of the wigwam, and a bit of charcoal is used for
-the dark tone at the opening. Now add the decorative details.
-
-In order to complete the sketch, use stroke 4 for the foreground. It
-is similar to those previously used, and is made by an irregular,
-up-and-down movement of the chalk.
-
-A pond, a canoe, or other suggestive detail may be used in this sketch,
-and applied to the work in history, geography, language, etc.
-
-Try the second little drawing, using similar strokes in a very simple
-manner.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 9]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 9
-
-
-Lesson No. 7 gave a few suggestions useful in geography and landscape
-work. This time we will try another type which will doubtless be found
-equally useful.
-
-Stroke 1 is a horizontal stroke accented at the lower end of the chalk
-by a decided pressure. This will readily give a tone for the sky and a
-definite line for the horizon.
-
-At No. 2, the sky is drawn in the same manner, and charcoal or black
-chalk is introduced for the ocean. These touches are made with the side
-of the chalk in irregular, wavy lines.
-
-Spray may be represented by massing a little chalk near the rocks or
-beach, and by rubbing the tip of the finger or a soft bit of cloth into
-the body of chalk, gradually blending it into the rocks or water. See
-No. 4.
-
-To obtain a sketch like that given in this lesson, first draw the
-horizon, then the wavy strokes for the sea. The cliffs or rocks are
-drawn by using strokes like those at No. 3. They are irregular strokes
-accented with one end of the chalk. Here again the charcoal is useful
-in adding crevices or shadows in the rocks. Erase spots for the boats
-and add details.
-
-The effect of a beach may be produced by using the same broad stroke
-as in the sky, accenting with the upper end of the chalk to give
-the margin of the beach. Add a few ripples and pebbles, or a bit of
-seaweed, using the point of the chalk.
-
-The sketch given on this plate was used as an illustration for
-literature.
-
- A heap of bare and splintery crags
- Tumbled about by lightning and frost.
-

-
-[Illustration: Plate 10]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 10
-
-
-The sketch on plate 10 was suggested for geography. It is very simple
-and requires only strokes already used a number of times.
-
-The sky and hill are represented by the use of stroke 1. Place a long
-piece of chalk vertically, the accent at the lower end giving the
-outline of the hill.
-
-The marshy land is represented by a similar stroke carried in a
-horizontal direction. The board is left free from chalk in the case
-of the hill and the water. The village in the distance is added with
-charcoal, and the reflections in the water with little touches of chalk
-or charcoal.
-
-Erase spots for the haystacks, and use stroke 3. This is a very simple
-curving stroke with the side of the chalk, accenting with the left end
-of the crayon; then a reverse stroke, accenting with the right end of
-the chalk. If shadows are desired they may be added with charcoal or
-black crayon. Observe that the tops of all the haystacks are on a level.

-The sketch with the ladder was made for primary reading. Different
-words were written on the different steps of the ladder and the
-children tried to see how high they could climb; in other words, how
-much of the lesson they could read. If they read all of the words they
-could climb to the top of the haycock.

-PLATE 11
-
-
-Here again are very simple strokes which require only a little practice
-for accomplishment.
-
-The distance is represented as in the last plate, and the grass and
-meadow are done in the same manner as the marshy land on plate 10; 1
-and 2 show the strokes. A few up-and-down touches with a short piece of
-chalk are added in the immediate foreground.
-
-The fence is drawn by the use of the strokes given on plate 1, and
-shown at 3 on this plate.
-
-After drawing the field and the fence, erase for the tree trunk and
-tree and add the foliage. This is done with a short piece of chalk
-and a quick back-and-forth movement. See plates 6, 12, and 24 for
-other trees and strokes. The skeleton of the tree, as shown below the
-drawing, may be represented first, then the foliage added.
-
-This plate will be found useful in the early spring, as it shows the
-tree in winter condition, the pussy willows, and the tree in summer.
-
-Spots 4 show the treatment of the “pussies.” A very short curving
-stroke of the chalk is first made; then the finger is used to give the
-downy, soft effect. Sketch a few delicate lines for the stems, add the
-catkins as described above, and then finish the stems with black and
-white chalk.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 12]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 12
-
-
-In sketching trees, one should bear in mind the general attitude of the
-tree, its characteristic form and branching, and the stroke which will
-best produce these.
-
-One teacher can best draw the tree by using such strokes as those at
-No. 1 to give the trunk and branches, and then applying the stroke for
-the foliage; while another teacher does better work by massing the
-tree, as at No. 2, and then adding trunk, branches and details. Either
-method is good.
-
-The strokes above the trees show the manner of representing the foliage
-of these particular trees. See plates 6, 11 and 24, for other trees.
-
-Apply either of the methods described above, using half a stick of
-chalk placed flat upon the board and moved rapidly in the direction
-suggested by the stroke. For the elm it is a curving motion; for the
-poplar up and down; for the pine, back and forth; for the oak or apple,
-an irregular and slightly slanting stroke, etc.
-
-After the mass of the tree is drawn, accent here and there with the
-same stroke, and add branches and details.
-
-When working upon a gray background or against a light tone for the
-sky, use black chalk or charcoal in the manner described above.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 13]

-
-
-PLATE 13
-
-
-As stated in the introduction, there have been many requests for
-suggestions for calendars. Whatever the month may be, draw a simple
-calendar large enough to be seen by the children. If a picture of some
-sort is desired, draw something which will be appropriate to the month
-and arrange it in a vertical panel at one side, or a horizontal panel
-above or below the calendar. The goldenrod on plate 13 will show what
-is meant by this arrangement.
-
-All the strokes here given have been drawn before and are easily
-applied. Strokes 1 are given for the goldenrod, strokes 2 for the
-rose hips and leaves, 3 for the roses, 4 for the thistle, and 5 for
-the daisy. With a few light touches of the chalk indicate the growth
-and position of the specimen; then apply the strokes for drawing the
-surface of flowers and leaves.
-
-In sketching the thistle the pointed details are added with the point
-of the chalk.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 14]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 14
-
-
-At No. 1 is a very simple stroke made by placing a piece of chalk in
-a vertical position, and drawing it across the board in any desired
-direction, breaking it at regular intervals by lifting the chalk from
-the board. This stroke is useful in representing tiles, brick, stone,
-or any broken surface.
-
-In this particular sketch a horizontal stroke is first made for the
-mantel, then the vertical strokes for the surface of the walls; then
-the bricks are added by the use of the strokes given at 1. Erase the
-space necessary for the fireplace, and add black chalk or charcoal,
-leaving the board where the fire is to be represented.
-
-A few gray strokes with the side of the chalk will indicate the logs,
-and the use of stroke 2 will add the fire and smoke. Stroke 2 is made
-by massing a little white chalk, and then rubbing into it with the
-finger, gradually blending it into the tone of the blackboard. The
-details, andirons, etc., are easily added.
-
-If this sketch is used for Christmas, add toys, sleds, stockings, or
-other objects suggestive of the day. They are all drawn with the side
-of the chalk, the direction of the stroke being dictated by the object.
-
-The sketches in this and the following lesson may be used in work in
-history, or to illustrate the type of house used by the early settlers.
-The sketch on plate 15 is supposed to be Washington’s home, and that on
-plate 16 is Lincoln’s birthplace.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 15]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 15
-
-
-Study the horizontal lines at No. 1. Though not like those in the
-sketch below, they show how any such cabin may be drawn. Try these
-strokes, accenting with the upper end of the chalk while making the
-horizontal line. Should one side of the building be lighter than the
-other, obtain the desired effect by varying the pressure upon the chalk.
-
-No. 2 is made by the use of a long piece of chalk, and by keeping a
-smooth, even tone throughout the stroke.
-
-Stroke 3 is made in a similar manner to that on plate 14 in the drawing
-of the bricks. Make it in a rather irregular fashion, and add little
-touches of detail with chalk or charcoal.
-
-Stroke 4 is made with a very long piece of chalk, with strong pressure
-on the lower end. This will give a good tone for the sky and serve as
-an outline for the roof of the building.
-
-In making this sketch, take a short piece of the chalk and use a stroke
-like No. 1, beginning with a very short line; and increasing the length
-of the strokes till the body of the house is reached and then keeping
-the lines of uniform length to the ground.
-
-After the body of the building and the sky are represented, erase the
-logs where the chimney, windows, or door are to be drawn. Erase also
-whatever chalk may be upon the board where the trees are desired,
-and apply the irregular touches already given in drawing trees. Use
-chalk or charcoal, according to the tone desired in trees, windows and
-chimney. See stroke 3. See strokes on plate 16 and plate 12.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 16 - see lesson on previous page--Plate 15]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 16
-
-
-Study the strokes given on the previous page, plate 15, for suggestions
-for sketching this cabin. Those at No. 2, No. 3, and No. 4 will be
-found helpful.
-
-Use stroke 4, plate 15, for the outline of the roof and the sky, and
-add the smooth vertical or horizontal strokes for the sides of the
-building. Accent here and there with the point of the chalk and add
-details in a similar manner, but avoid a definite outline. Let the
-difference in tone make whatever outline is necessary.
-
-After erasing the spots for doors and windows, add the strong dark
-tones with a bit of charcoal. The details at 1 and 2 on the plate will
-show how these are made. No. 3 shows the treatment for the roof.
-
-After erasing for the trees, add a little charcoal and chalk, using
-the strokes given in the lesson on trees, plate 12. The grass and the
-details in the foreground may be added last. The sketch will readily
-show the strokes necessary and the movement of the hand in making these
-strokes.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 17]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 17
-
-
-Whenever I have made a sketch of this kind it has always given great
-pleasure to the children, and proved of more or less value in history,
-or in story-telling in the lower grades.
-
-Stroke 1 illustrates the treatment for the sky and the horizon. A few
-soft touches with the side of the chalk will indicate clouds. Blend
-the white tone into the gray of the blackboard. The chalk is held
-vertically and drawn across the board horizontally.
-
-Next erase a spot or two for the sails and hull of the ship, and apply
-stroke 2. This stroke is made by placing the chalk in an oblique
-position and drawing a curving stroke downward, the end of the chalk
-giving the outline of the sail. In the drawing at the left a graded
-stroke was used, the eraser making the edge of the sail at the left and
-the chalk at the right.
-
-Stroke 3 is desirable in representing the ocean. It is made by placing
-the chalk vertically upon the board and making a long, sweeping stroke,
-accented with the upper end of the chalk. In these sketches charcoal
-was used for the dark streaks in the water.
-
-In drawing the hull of the ship, try stroke 4, using a short piece of
-chalk or charcoal. The chalk is placed vertically and a curving stroke
-is used with no particular accent. Add details with touches of chalk or
-charcoal.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 18]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 18
-
-
-On plate 18 are suggestions for the month of March, or for geography,
-history, or occupations and habits of the people.
-
-Apply a few delicate, horizontal and curving strokes to the board; then
-with a soft piece of cloth erase for the distance, as at No. 1. Use
-stroke 2 for the sides of the windmill, stroke 3 for the wings, and
-touches of charcoal for the windows.
-
-Stroke 5, plate 3, will help in representing the foreground. Use
-the chalk very delicately, accenting here and there with stronger
-touches, and a vertical stroke now and then for the reflections in the
-water--stroke 4.
-
-The strokes illustrated on plates 2, 3, and 5 will be useful in
-sketching the shores and other objects. Remember to allow the pressure
-upon the chalk to indicate the outlines of objects, and never to add
-definite marks with the point excepting for necessary details or high
-lights.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 19]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 19
-
-
-This plate was planned as a review lesson, as well as to give
-illustrations which teachers might use for a great variety of purposes.
-All these strokes have been given before and are easily applied.
-
-For the turkey, sketch lightly a circle; then with the side of the
-chalk add broad, gray strokes. See No. 1. After this is done, add short
-touches with the side of the chalk, for the wings, legs, feathers, etc.
-
-Stroke 2 was given on plate 2, and, with the addition of the little
-slanting and curving strokes here given, will produce the lighthouse.
-This sketch will perhaps be useful in connection with plate 9, in
-teaching the seacoast.
-
-Strokes 3 and 4 are similar to those given on plate 5. They are made by
-the use of curving strokes with the side of the chalk, the accent being
-upon the end forming the outline. This stroke is frequently used, the
-object to be drawn dictating the direction of the stroke. Apply these
-strokes in drawing the rat, the chickens, the mushrooms and the frog.
-
-In the tree sketch, a background of gray is first drawn with the side
-of the chalk; then the strokes given on plate 6 are applied with
-charcoal, and the snowflakes added with strong touches of white chalk.
-If the candles are desired, omit the snow and use tiny strokes like
-those at 5.
-
-No. 6 is desirable in representing the nest. After 6 is drawn, add
-stroke 4 for the eggs and finish the nest by using strong touches with
-the point of the chalk.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 20]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 20
-
-
-The strokes on plate 20 are so well defined that it hardly seems
-necessary to describe them. For 1 a short piece of chalk is used, the
-side of the chalk giving the width of the line. At 2 the stroke is
-similar, the accent being at one end of the chalk. At 3 the stroke is
-slightly curving, the chalk being placed vertically, and the accent
-being upon the upper end of the chalk. No. 4 is drawn by placing the
-chalk vertically upon the board, drawing it downward very quickly
-and twisting it to the horizontal position. Apply these strokes in
-sketching the lobster. First use stroke 3, then touches like 2;
-afterward strokes 1 and 4 for details.
-
-No. 5 indicates the strokes first used in sketching the shells. In
-drawing the outside of the nautilus, use a long piece of chalk and with
-a curving stroke accented with the end, form the outline. With strokes
-similar to those at 2, sketch the light streaks in the shell, and add
-dark details with charcoal. Use the tip of the finger in softening the
-tones here and there.
-
-In drawing the section, sketch first the spiral curve, then the blended
-strokes connecting the outer with the inner curves of the spiral, and
-add charcoal for shadows.
-
-The oyster shell is drawn by the use of the lower stroke at No. 5.
-Make the stroke, accenting a little at the left end of the chalk; then
-reverse the stroke, accenting with the right end, and add details with
-chalk and charcoal.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 21]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 21
-
-
-The strokes and touches used upon plate 21 are more delicate than any
-previously given, though similar in character. No. 1 is drawn with the
-side of the chalk, the accent being with the left end. Allow the hand
-to tremble a bit and the texture desired is more readily obtained.
-Stroke 2 is produced in the same manner. After these are drawn add the
-shades, stems, and leaf with charcoal, and high lights with touches of
-white chalk.
-
-Stroke 3 is exactly like that at No. 2, plate 20, though drawn with
-a much smaller piece of chalk. A series of these strokes, with the
-addition of touches with the charcoal and point of the chalk, as
-indicated in the sketch, will produce the caterpillar.
-
-Strokes 4 and 5 are valuable in sketching a butterfly or moth. They
-are gray strokes with the side of the chalk, the pressure being upon
-the end forming the outline. In work of this kind study nature very
-carefully, as no sketch or copy can do what nature can for the teacher.
-After the general form of the butterfly is drawn with these light gray
-strokes, add the details, using touches of chalk or charcoal, and
-occasionally blending them with the tip of the finger.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 22]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 22
-
-
-A very few lines will often indicate the pose or action of an animal.
-Try lines similar to those at 1; study other animals and try a few
-characteristic lines. See No. 1 for the squirrel and for the fish.
-
-After practicing the pose, try 2 without sketching the lines with the
-point of the chalk, but by using the side, as in previous sketches. To
-finish the sketch add the few details necessary, as shown in the other
-drawings.
-
-The strokes used in these sketches are given on several other plates.
-They are produced by using the side of about two-thirds of a stick of
-chalk, and by accenting or letting the pressure be greatest at the
-end of the chalk which is to form the outline. This type of stroke is
-perhaps most evident where the pressure was upon the left end of the
-chalk, as in the squirrel’s back.
-
-See also stroke 4, plate 3, and strokes upon plate 5.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 23]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 23
-
-
-The strokes used in the birds are exactly like those described in the
-previous lesson.
-
-Sketch first an egg shape, No. 1, using half or two-thirds of a stick
-of chalk, and pressing a bit upon the outer end, letting the stroke
-blend into the board.
-
-Add to this a few blended strokes representing the form and position of
-head, tail and wing. The sketches at 2, 3 and 4 indicate upon which end
-of the chalk the pressure should come. Be careful to keep the delicate
-gray or middle tones.
-
-After such drawings as those at 2, 3 and 4 are made, then add the
-characteristic details with the chalk and charcoal. It will be seen by
-studying these finished drawings that only a few touches are necessary
-to complete the sketches.
-
-In order to obtain a contrast between the background and the head of
-the bird in the lower sketch, a little chalk was massed upon the board
-as a background. See plate 12.

-
-These sketches are drawn as illustrations for literature, but would be
-quite as useful in some other studies.
-
-The strokes at 1, 2 and 3 are those used in the tree sketch; 1 is
-obtained by two strokes of the chalk, placed vertically upon the board
-and accented by a pressure upon the lower end. These strokes give the
-sky and the hills in the distance. The use of the eraser and a few
-blended strokes like those at 2 will help in sketching the tree trunks.
-See plate 2. After these are done, add stroke 3, and with it mass the
-foliage. See suggestions on plate 12. The point of land in the distance
-and a few of the branches are added with charcoal.
-
-Study the lesson on plate 23 before sketching the sparrow. Stroke 4 is
-made with a single broad mark of charcoal, and the addition of tiny
-touches with the chalk. The branch is drawn in a similar manner, and
-the background is added by a few soft and delicate touches with the
-side of the chalk.

-
-
-This plate was used as an illustration for Longfellow’s
-“Flower-de-luce.” The pond-lily may be used in nature study or as an
-illustration for some poem.
-
-The strokes necessary or useful in drawing these bits are shown at
-No. 1, No. 2 and No. 3. At No. 1 the chalk is placed in an oblique
-position, drawn gradually downward, and at the same time twisted to the
-horizontal position at the middle of the stroke. Try this stroke in a
-great variety of positions. The spots produced will be found useful in
-much of the flower and leaf drawing. Apply these in the fleur-de-lis.
-
-The strokes at 2 for the leaves were given and described on plate 4,
-and may be appropriated wherever reeds or grasses are to be drawn.
-
-Stroke 3 is simple, yet often found troublesome by pupils. Place the
-chalk in a vertical position, draw it quickly downward, twisting it to
-a nearly horizontal position. Let the accent be at the upper end of the
-stroke. Try a number of these strokes, letting them meet at the centre
-of the flower. In making the drawing of the pond-lily, accent the
-nearest petals.
-
-The reflection in the water, and the reeds in the background are
-obtained by delicate vertical strokes, crossed in the water by
-occasional horizontal touches. Use simple curving strokes for the lily
-pads.

-PLATE 26
-
-
-Here is given another literature illustration, which is drawn with such
-strokes as those indicated in the upper part of the plate.
-
-Stroke 1 has been described many times already. After this is drawn
-indicate the distance by the use of a few touches with charcoal, and
-the water with a delicate line or two of chalk. Let the strokes be
-horizontal.
-
-The rocks are represented with such strokes as No. 3. See also plate 9,
-stroke 3. Accent here and there for the light touches, and add bits of
-charcoal for the dark.
-
-Stroke 2 is drawn by placing the chalk in a vertical position, and
-drawing it in the desired direction with a rather irregular or uneven
-stroke. See stroke 3, plate 15. When the strong, bright tones are
-desired, accent with the chalk, and when the gray tones are necessary,
-hardly touch the board. The windows are added with strong strokes of
-charcoal.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 27]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 27
-
-
-This plate was planned especially for arithmetic lessons, as it shows
-in the sketches the various processes through which the cotton passes
-before reaching the retailer, thus suggesting a number of practical
-problems. It may be used quite as well in geography, history, and
-nature study.
-
-Spot 1 is produced by massing a bit of chalk and then rubbing it into
-the desired shape by the use of the finger tip. The pod is drawn with a
-short stick of charcoal, used in the same manner as the chalk.
-
-No. 2 shows the stroke for the sky and horizon, and has already been
-described in many other lessons.
-
-To produce the effect shown at No. 3 use the side of a short piece of
-chalk, and with a rather irregular stroke draw the twigs and stems.
-Accent the spots for the cotton balls.
-
-In the other small sketches the strokes are so evident that they
-hardly need description. A white, smooth sky, erased where the mills
-and chimneys appear, will produce the effect in the lowest drawing. A
-little charcoal may be added for the darkest tones, a stroke of the
-eraser for the smoke, and little touches of chalk for the windows.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 28]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 28
-
-
-These sketches were also suggested for problems in arithmetic. The
-problems relate to lumbering, measurement, and commission.
-
-No. 1 illustrates the beginning of a forest sketch. With a single
-stroke of the chalk, accented at the lower end, draw the sky. With a
-second more delicate stroke show the distance; then with a few quick,
-nearly vertical strokes with the eraser show the positions of the
-trees. Later with chalk or charcoal and the use of such strokes as
-those given on plate 2, and at No. 3 on this plate, add the shading in
-the tree trunks.
-
-No. 2 shows the strokes useful in drawing the camp, the wood pile, or
-the lumber. These have already been given in such sketches as those on
-plate 15.
-
-The sketch of the house in the original had the dimensions marked upon
-it, and the pupils were to find the shingles required for the roof, the
-clapboards for the walls, etc.
-
-Before trying this sketch, study plates 15 and 16 for strokes and
-details.
-
-[Illustration: Plate 29]
-
-
-
-
-PLATE 29
-
-
-The accompanying plate was taken from a lesson in a first grade. The
-little boy was dressed in an impromptu costume of cotton batting, and
-the background hastily sketched by the teacher.
-
-The horizon was drawn as on plate 9; then a few soft oblique
-strokes were added to the sky. The shore was drawn with irregular
-back-and-forth strokes, as in many of the previous sketches, and a
-sheet was tacked to the board in order to obtain the white foreground.
-
-An almost vertical stroke accented with the end of the chalk was used
-in drawing the icebergs, and a few strokes of charcoal were added.
-
-The huts were drawn with a curving stroke accented with the upper end
-of the chalk, and they were finished by applying stroke 2, plate 3, and
-adding a few details with the point of the chalk.
-
-Any teacher can easily arrange such backgrounds and costumes with
-the simplest material at hand, and in this manner add essentially
-to the interest and value of a lesson. A Japanese Day, An Indian
-Entertainment, A Soldiers’ Camp Ground, A Lumber Camp, and many others,
-are easily arranged.

-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
-Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up

-and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-
-
-<p>Ability to draw easily and well on the blackboard is a power which
-every teacher of children covets. Such drawing is a language which
-never fails to hold attention and awaken delighted interest.</p>
-
-<p>It has been considered impossible for most of us, because we have never
-done it. It has been strongly recommended, but no one has really shown
-us how.</p>
-
-<p>A book like this which does show how, step by step, from the first
-practice strokes to completed and effective sketches, will be
-everywhere welcome. No one can follow the plain suggestions given
-without appreciating the possibilities of chalk and charcoal for
-ordinary school-room illustration, and finding in himself a steady
-development of power to sketch on the blackboard.</p>
-
-<p>The book is not the product of theories about drawing, but the fruit
-of long experience of one who has drawn with and for children and
-students and teachers, and has been more successful than any one I know
-in inspiring them by that means. I welcome the book and predict for
-it a potent influence for increasing and improving blackboard drawing
-throughout the schools of the land.</p>

-</div>
-
-
-<p>This collection of blackboard sketches and the accompanying text has
-been planned at the request of many teachers and pupils who desire
-lessons and suggestions along this line, but who are unable to secure
-personal instruction.</p>
-
-<p>In general, these requests have been for simple sketches dealing with
-the various lines of school work, and at the same time for strokes and
-explicit directions for using these in the drawings. For these reasons
-there are given upon nearly every plate the strokes of the chalk useful
-in producing the desired effect, and upon the opposite page such
-directions as are generally given to the students in the classroom.</p>
-
-<p>A few of the lessons deal with the strokes and their application to the
-very simplest objects possible, but even these may be found useful as
-illustrative material. They are recommended in order that the teacher
-may become familiar with the medium, and with the simplest and the most
-direct manner of handling it before attempting sketches which require a
-great variety of touches. I have tried to have the other sketches cover
-as great a variety of subjects as possible.</p>
-
-<p>Plates <a href="#img003">3</a>, <a href="#img005">5</a>, <a href="#img008">8</a>, <a href="#img010">10</a>, <a href="#img011">11</a>, <a href="#img013">13</a>, <a href="#img014">14</a>, <a href="#img015">15</a>, <a href="#img016">16</a>, <a href="#img017">17</a>, <a href="#img018">18</a>, <a href="#img022">22</a>, <a href="#img023">23</a> and <a href="#img029">29</a> have been
-used with the little people in different forms of stories, language
-and reading lessons. Plates <a href="#img007">7</a>, <a href="#img008">8</a>, <a href="#img009">9</a>, <a href="#img010">10</a>, <a href="#img011">11</a>, <a href="#img018">18</a>, <a href="#img027">27</a>, <a href="#img028">28</a> and <a href="#img029">29</a> are
-suggested for geography lessons in various grades. Plates <a href="#img008">8</a>, <a href="#img014">14</a>, <a href="#img015">15</a>,
-<a href="#img016">16</a>, <a href="#img017">17</a>, <a href="#img018">18</a>, <a href="#img027">27</a>, <a href="#img028">28</a> and <a href="#img029">29</a> may be used in history lessons. Plates <a href="#img001">1</a>
-and <a href="#img003">3</a> have been used in primary numbers, and plates <a href="#img027">27</a> and <a href="#img028">28</a> for
-arithmetic, when the problems had to do with commission, measurement,
-etc., or when the problems referred to lumbering or manufacturing.
-Plates <a href="#img004">4</a>, <a href="#img005">5</a>, <a href="#img006">6</a>, <a href="#img011">11</a>, <a href="#img012">12</a>, <a href="#img013">13</a>, <a href="#img019">19</a>, <a href="#img020">20</a>, <a href="#img021">21</a>, <a href="#img022">22</a>, <a href="#img023">23</a>, <a href="#img024">24</a>, <a href="#img025">25</a>, <a href="#img027">27</a> and <a href="#img028">28</a>
-will be found helpful in many lines of nature study, especially when
-the nature specimens are difficult to obtain. Plates <a href="#img009">9</a>, <a href="#img024">24</a>, <a href="#img025">25</a> and
-<a href="#img026">26</a><span class="pagenum" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</span> illustrate the value of this line of drawing in the study of
-literature; and many of the other drawings may be used in a similar
-manner. The teacher who uses this type of illustrative sketching will
-readily see how the drawings may be applied to other subjects.</p>
-
-<p>Teachers have occasionally asked for illustrations for the different
-months of the school year, something to use with calendars, or for
-different holiday drawings. Several sketches given on the plates are
-suitable for the various months. For calendars I suggest discarding the
-plaided pumpkin for November, the numbered bricks in a fireplace for
-December, the kite covered with numbered squares for March, etc., etc.
-A regular numbered calendar may be used, with an appropriate sketch
-above or at one side. See Plate <a href="#img013">13</a>, goldenrod. The holiday itself
-should suggest the character of the sketch.</p>
-
-<p>Although these sketches are recommended as illustrations for certain
-subjects, it is not intended that the teacher should merely copy these
-drawings, but that she should be able to appropriate these strokes,
-enlarge upon them, and apply them in illustrations for the particular
-subjects she is teaching; and there are many subjects which require
-just this sort of expression on the part of the teacher.</p>

-<p>“Children are not all ears; they take in more through the eyes than in
-any other way.”</p>
-
-<p>Since all teachers know this is true, they should realize the
-usefulness of illustration on the blackboard.</p>
-
-<p>A few moments now and then devoted to the practice of these strokes,
-and frequent application of them, will enable the teacher better to
-express and emphasize certain facts, details, or incidents connected
-with a lesson; better to hold the interest and attention of the
-class, and more readily to create an interest in drawing. She will
-thus, by example, lead the children to make the drawing a natural and
-spontaneous means of expression.</p>

-
-<p>For the first lesson I advise trying the simplest possible stroke, and
-its application in the sketching of very simple things. The stroke is a
-straight mark with the side of the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>Take half or two-thirds of a stick of chalk, discard the small end, and
-use such a piece in nearly all the lessons given. In this case place
-the chalk horizontally upon the board, and drag it gradually downward,
-keeping an even pressure upon the chalk. Try this in various directions.</p>
-
-<p>The oblique lines show what a variety of width may be obtained by
-changing the angle of the chalk. At 1, the full length of the chalk
-is required to give the broad stroke desired. At <abbr title="numbers">Nos.</abbr> 2, 3, 4 and 5,
-the line above the stroke indicates the angle at which the chalk is
-placed in order to give the width of the strokes below. The use of the
-chalk in this manner enables one to obtain any desired width of line,
-without constantly changing the piece of chalk. A light or dark tone is
-produced by varying the pressure upon the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing the telegraph pole, draw first a delicate vertical stroke,
-then add the horizontal cross pieces with a stronger accent, and last
-the white strokes indicating thickness.</p>
-
-<p>In the case of the chicken coop, draw first the oblique slats, then
-with a stronger pressure upon the chalk, add the horizontal slats, and
-lastly, with the point of the chalk add the accented bits of detail.</p>
-
-<p>Almost any simple object composed of straight lines may be drawn in
-this manner.</p>

-
-<p>The strokes upon this plate are more often used than any others which
-will be given in these lessons. These strokes are made by holding the
-chalk by one end rather than in the middle, and then by drawing in any
-direction desired, letting the pressure come at the end of the chalk,
-thus giving a graded stroke from side to side. For example, stroke 1
-was made by taking about two-thirds of a stick of chalk, holding it by
-the left end, placing it horizontally upon the board, and then drawing
-downward, accenting a little with the left end of the chalk. Stroke 5
-was made in a similar manner, the chalk being held by the right end,
-and the pressure being also at that end.</p>
-
-<p>Practice these strokes in many directions, and then apply them to
-drawing some simple objects. On the plate the cylinder, barrel, and
-canoe are illustrated to show the application of such simple marks.</p>
-
-<p>In the cylinder, strokes 1 and 5 are used for the left and right
-outlines; then three curving strokes will finish the top and bottom.</p>
-
-<p>In sketching the barrel, use similar strokes, curving them a bit. Add
-curving strokes for the hoops, using a short piece of chalk; then add
-markings here and there with the point for details.</p>
-
-<p>The canoe is one long, nearly horizontal stroke accented at the upper
-end of the chalk. A few small touches similar to those at 3 will give
-the rocky shore, and a line or two with the point, the necessary
-details.</p>

-<p>The lesson planned at illustration <a href="#img003">3</a> is useful in a number of school
-lessons in the lower grades. I have seen it used in teaching reading in
-the first grade. In this case, some word from the lesson was written
-upon each apple, and the children were asked to see how many apples
-they could gather and put into the basket; in other words, to see how
-many words they could read. When a word was recognized, it was erased.
-Again, it has been successfully used in teaching number, form, etc. See
-also the ladder, plate <a href="#img010">10</a>.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 1 is made by placing the chalk upon the board in a vertical
-position and then drawing it across the board, varying the pressure
-frequently so as to give the effect seen in the basket. The strokes at
-2 are produced in the same manner. Here the light spots in the stroke
-are alternated, coming beneath the dark spots in the stroke above. Try
-a number of these in the curving direction suggested at 2.</p>
-
-<p>In making a sketch of a basket, draw lightly the elliptical top, then
-add as many strokes as are necessary to give the desired depth, and
-lastly add the handle. Strokes 3, and the ellipse below them, show the
-manner of producing this effect. Place the chalk horizontally at the
-top of the basket, decide where the handle should end at the opposite
-side, then draw upward with a heavy stroke, across the top lightly,
-then downward with a slight pressure. Keep the chalk in a horizontal
-position throughout the stroke. Add a line of accent to the nearest
-edge of the handle.</p>
-
-<p>The tree trunk back of the basket is drawn with strokes 1 and 5, plate
-<a href="#img002">2</a>, the stroke being curved a bit at the lower end. The grass is added
-by the use of stroke 5, which is made by using a short piece of chalk,
-and by moving the hand rapidly up and down. A little accent may be used
-occasionally.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing the apples study stroke 4. These are made like those on
-plate <a href="#img002">2</a>, by accenting with the end of the chalk. Use a very short
-curving stroke, first toward the left, then toward the right. Add
-stems, etc., with the point of the chalk.</p>

-
-
-<p>Lesson <a href="#img004">4</a> introduces a stroke entirely different from those already
-given, and one which will require more practice in order to obtain the
-desired results and to apply it readily in quick sketches.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 1 is made by placing the chalk in a horizontal position upon
-the board, and drawing it downward, gradually twisting it to the
-vertical position. Stroke 2 is the exact opposite. Place the chalk
-vertically upon the board, draw it downward and gradually twist it to
-the horizontal position.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing strokes 3 and 4, combine those already given at 1 and 2. For
-3, place the chalk vertically, draw it downward, quickly twisting it
-to the horizontal position; then, without removing it from the board,
-bring it back to the vertical position. Try stroke 4, beginning with
-the horizontal position of the chalk, twisting it to the vertical, then
-back again to the horizontal position.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 5 shows a curving effect produced in the same manner as stroke
-3, but with a curving instead of a vertical tendency.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing the cat tails, use strokes 1 and 5 on plate <a href="#img002">2</a>. These are
-slightly curved at the upper and lower ends. Keep some of them very
-delicate, others quite white. The leaves are drawn by using strokes 1,
-2, and 3, on plate <a href="#img004">4</a>. Let the tone desired in the drawing govern the
-pressure used upon the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>The palms are drawn by using the same strokes. Draw first very
-delicately with the side of the chalk, then with strokes 1, 2 or 3 add
-stronger strokes for accent.</p>

-
-<p>A new stroke will be introduced for this lesson. It is a regular or
-irregular curve as the case may require, and is useful in all sorts of
-nature drawing.</p>
-
-<p>First try the long curving stroke <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, accenting with the left end
-of the chalk. Reverse the stroke, accenting with the right end of the
-chalk. Now try <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, making a series of nearly parallel strokes,
-keeping the accent at the left.</p>
-
-<p>The pumpkin is drawn by combining these strokes, varying the pressure
-to obtain the desired tone, and accenting with the left end of the
-chalk, then reversing the stroke for the right side of the pumpkin. Add
-the stem by the use of a few irregular strokes and a bit of accent.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 3 may be used in drawing any large leaves, such as squash,
-grape, etc. Try this in a great variety of positions, always keeping
-the accent for the edge of the leaf. Apply this in drawing the grape
-foliage in the illustration below. Draw first the mid-rib and then
-represent the surface of the leaf by using stroke 3. The grapes are
-added by the use of stroke 4, which is stroke 1 very much reduced. Let
-the grapes be drawn with a short, quick twist of the chalk. Lastly add
-stems and accent.</p>
-
-<p>Almost any vegetables may be drawn after a little practice of the
-strokes given at 5. These are made exactly like stroke 1, with changes
-in direction. Try a single onion or carrot, then a group of vegetables.
-Do these as simply as possible, obtaining the effect, if you can, with
-three or four strokes, then add a few touches for details.</p>

-<p>The strokes given in this lesson, although not used as frequently as

-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 shows the manner in which the stroke is produced. Place a piece

-<p>In this lesson we will put to practical use such strokes as those given
-in the first few lessons. The sketches of this character are often
-valuable in the schoolroom when studying the mountains, the hillside,
-the river, etc., and the teacher who, with a few strokes of the chalk,
-can interpret to her class the thing about which they are studying, and
-can make an illustration which the whole class can see and appreciate,
-has an invaluable gift.</p>
-
-<p>Experiment with the strokes given at 1, 2 and 3. As in previous lessons
-the side of the chalk is used, and the accent is with one end. Try to
-give the effect of snow, of rocks, of a bright day, or of a cloudy
-day, by varying the tone or pressure upon the chalk. Sometimes use
-the chalk for sky, leaving the board for the hills. Then reverse the
-stroke, letting the sky remain gray and using the chalk to represent
-the mountain, accenting with the upper end of the chalk. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3 is a
-combination of 1 and 2, the chalk being used in both sky and mountain.
-In <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4, the eraser or a soft bit of cloth is used to take out the
-trees after the chalk has been applied.</p>
-
-<p>In the sketch given on the lower part of the plate combine the
-suggestions given above. A few short, curving strokes with the usual
-accent at one end of the crayon will give the rocks, and the irregular
-horizontal and zigzag strokes already given will produce the ripples in
-the river, and the foreground.</p>

-
-<p>In the exercise illustrated on the opposite page you will find
-combinations of the strokes already given, but they are varied somewhat
-in rendering these drawings. Any sketch or object to be drawn should
-dictate the kind of stroke to be used and the manner of handling the
-chalk, the pressure, accent, etc.</p>
-
-<p>For the larger sketch, draw first the tree trunks as shown at No 1. Let
-the pressure be as gentle as possible, the chalk hardly touching the
-board. After these are massed in the background, erase a triangular
-spot for the wigwam, and with the oblique strokes 2, accented first at
-the left, then at the right, obtain the general form required. Stroke
-3 is added at the top of the wigwam, and a bit of charcoal is used for
-the dark tone at the opening. Now add the decorative details.</p>
-
-<p>In order to complete the sketch, use stroke 4 for the foreground. It
-is similar to those previously used, and is made by an irregular,
-up-and-down movement of the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>A pond, a canoe, or other suggestive detail may be used in this sketch,
-and applied to the work in history, geography, language, etc.</p>

-
-<p>Lesson <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> <a href="#img007">7</a> gave a few suggestions useful in geography and landscape
-work. This time we will try another type which will doubtless be found
-equally useful.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 1 is a horizontal stroke accented at the lower end of the chalk
-by a decided pressure. This will readily give a tone for the sky and a
-definite line for the horizon.</p>
-
-<p>At <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, the sky is drawn in the same manner, and charcoal or black
-chalk is introduced for the ocean. These touches are made with the side
-of the chalk in irregular, wavy lines.</p>
-
-<p>Spray may be represented by massing a little chalk near the rocks or
-beach, and by rubbing the tip of the finger or a soft bit of cloth into
-the body of chalk, gradually blending it into the rocks or water. See
-<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4.</p>
-
-<p>To obtain a sketch like that given in this lesson, first draw the
-horizon, then the wavy strokes for the sea. The cliffs or rocks are
-drawn by using strokes like those at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3. They are irregular strokes
-accented with one end of the chalk. Here again the charcoal is useful
-in adding crevices or shadows in the rocks. Erase spots for the boats
-and add details.</p>
-
-<p>The effect of a beach may be produced by using the same broad stroke
-as in the sky, accenting with the upper end of the chalk to give
-the margin of the beach. Add a few ripples and pebbles, or a bit of
-seaweed, using the point of the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>The sketch given on this plate was used as an illustration for
-literature.</p>

-
-
-<p>The sketch on plate <a href="#img010">10</a> was suggested for geography. It is very simple
-and requires only strokes already used a number of times.</p>
-
-<p>The sky and hill are represented by the use of stroke 1. Place a long
-piece of chalk vertically, the accent at the lower end giving the
-outline of the hill.</p>
-
-<p>The marshy land is represented by a similar stroke carried in a
-horizontal direction. The board is left free from chalk in the case
-of the hill and the water. The village in the distance is added with
-charcoal, and the reflections in the water with little touches of chalk
-or charcoal.</p>
-
-<p>Erase spots for the haystacks, and use stroke 3. This is a very simple
-curving stroke with the side of the chalk, accenting with the left end
-of the crayon; then a reverse stroke, accenting with the right end of
-the chalk. If shadows are desired they may be added with charcoal or
-black crayon. Observe that the tops of all the haystacks are on a level.</p>
-
-<p>The sketch with the ladder was made for primary reading. Different
-words were written on the different steps of the ladder and the
-children tried to see how high they could climb; in other words, how
-much of the lesson they could read. If they read all of the words they
-could climb to the top of the haycock.</p>

-
-<p>Here again are very simple strokes which require only a little practice
-for accomplishment.</p>
-
-<p>The distance is represented as in the last plate, and the grass and
-meadow are done in the same manner as the marshy land on plate <a href="#img010">10</a>; 1
-and 2 show the strokes. A few up-and-down touches with a short piece of
-chalk are added in the immediate foreground.</p>
-
-<p>The fence is drawn by the use of the strokes given on plate <a href="#img001">1</a>, and
-shown at 3 on this plate.</p>
-
-<p>After drawing the field and the fence, erase for the tree trunk and
-tree and add the foliage. This is done with a short piece of chalk
-and a quick back-and-forth movement. See plates <a href="#img006">6</a>, <a href="#img012">12</a>, and <a href="#img024">24</a> for
-other trees and strokes. The skeleton of the tree, as shown below the
-drawing, may be represented first, then the foliage added.</p>
-
-<p>This plate will be found useful in the early spring, as it shows the
-tree in winter condition, the pussy willows, and the tree in summer.</p>
-
-<p>Spots 4 show the treatment of the “pussies.” A very short curving
-stroke of the chalk is first made; then the finger is used to give the
-downy, soft effect. Sketch a few delicate lines for the stems, add the
-catkins as described above, and then finish the stems with black and
-white chalk.</p>

-
-<p>In sketching trees, one should bear in mind the general attitude of the
-tree, its characteristic form and branching, and the stroke which will
-best produce these.</p>
-
-<p>One teacher can best draw the tree by using such strokes as those at
-<abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 to give the trunk and branches, and then applying the stroke for
-the foliage; while another teacher does better work by massing the
-tree, as at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, and then adding trunk, branches and details. Either
-method is good.</p>
-
-<p>The strokes above the trees show the manner of representing the foliage
-of these particular trees. See plates <a href="#img006">6</a>, <a href="#img011">11</a> and <a href="#img024">24</a>, for other trees.</p>
-
-<p>Apply either of the methods described above, using half a stick of
-chalk placed flat upon the board and moved rapidly in the direction
-suggested by the stroke. For the elm it is a curving motion; for the
-poplar up and down; for the pine, back and forth; for the oak or apple,
-an irregular and slightly slanting stroke, etc.</p>
-
-<p>After the mass of the tree is drawn, accent here and there with the
-same stroke, and add branches and details.</p>
-
-<p>When working upon a gray background or against a light tone for the
-sky, use black chalk or charcoal in the manner described above.</p>

-<p>As stated in the introduction, there have been many requests for
-suggestions for calendars. Whatever the month may be, draw a simple
-calendar large enough to be seen by the children. If a picture of some
-sort is desired, draw something which will be appropriate to the month
-and arrange it in a vertical panel at one side, or a horizontal panel
-above or below the calendar. The goldenrod on plate <a href="#img013">13</a> will show what
-is meant by this arrangement.</p>
-
-<p>All the strokes here given have been drawn before and are easily
-applied. Strokes 1 are given for the goldenrod, strokes 2 for the
-rose hips and leaves, 3 for the roses, 4 for the thistle, and 5 for
-the daisy. With a few light touches of the chalk indicate the growth
-and position of the specimen; then apply the strokes for drawing the
-surface of flowers and leaves.</p>
-
-<p>In sketching the thistle the pointed details are added with the point
-of the chalk.</p>

-
-<p>At <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 is a very simple stroke made by placing a piece of chalk in
-a vertical position, and drawing it across the board in any desired
-direction, breaking it at regular intervals by lifting the chalk from
-the board. This stroke is useful in representing tiles, brick, stone,
-or any broken surface.</p>
-
-<p>In this particular sketch a horizontal stroke is first made for the
-mantel, then the vertical strokes for the surface of the walls; then
-the bricks are added by the use of the strokes given at 1. Erase the
-space necessary for the fireplace, and add black chalk or charcoal,
-leaving the board where the fire is to be represented.</p>
-
-<p>A few gray strokes with the side of the chalk will indicate the logs,
-and the use of stroke 2 will add the fire and smoke. Stroke 2 is made
-by massing a little white chalk, and then rubbing into it with the
-finger, gradually blending it into the tone of the blackboard. The
-details, andirons, etc., are easily added.</p>
-
-<p>If this sketch is used for Christmas, add toys, sleds, stockings, or
-other objects suggestive of the day. They are all drawn with the side
-of the chalk, the direction of the stroke being dictated by the object.</p>
-
-<p>The sketches in this and the following lesson may be used in work in
-history, or to illustrate the type of house used by the early settlers.
-The sketch on plate <a href="#img015">15</a> is supposed to be Washington’s home, and that on
-plate <a href="#img016">16</a> is Lincoln’s birthplace.</p>

-<p>Study the horizontal lines at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1. Though not like those in the
-sketch below, they show how any such cabin may be drawn. Try these
-strokes, accenting with the upper end of the chalk while making the
-horizontal line. Should one side of the building be lighter than the
-other, obtain the desired effect by varying the pressure upon the chalk.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 is made by the use of a long piece of chalk, and by keeping a
-smooth, even tone throughout the stroke.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 3 is made in a similar manner to that on plate <a href="#img014">14</a> in the drawing
-of the bricks. Make it in a rather irregular fashion, and add little
-touches of detail with chalk or charcoal.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 4 is made with a very long piece of chalk, with strong pressure
-on the lower end. This will give a good tone for the sky and serve as
-an outline for the roof of the building.</p>
-
-<p>In making this sketch, take a short piece of the chalk and use a stroke
-like <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, beginning with a very short line; and increasing the length
-of the strokes till the body of the house is reached and then keeping
-the lines of uniform length to the ground.</p>
-
-<p>After the body of the building and the sky are represented, erase the
-logs where the chimney, windows, or door are to be drawn. Erase also
-whatever chalk may be upon the board where the trees are desired,
-and apply the irregular touches already given in drawing trees. Use
-chalk or charcoal, according to the tone desired in trees, windows and
-chimney. See stroke 3. See strokes on plate <a href="#img016">16</a> and plate <a href="#img012">12</a>.</p>

-
-<p>Whenever I have made a sketch of this kind it has always given great
-pleasure to the children, and proved of more or less value in history,
-or in story-telling in the lower grades.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 1 illustrates the treatment for the sky and the horizon. A few
-soft touches with the side of the chalk will indicate clouds. Blend
-the white tone into the gray of the blackboard. The chalk is held
-vertically and drawn across the board horizontally.</p>
-
-<p>Next erase a spot or two for the sails and hull of the ship, and apply
-stroke 2. This stroke is made by placing the chalk in an oblique
-position and drawing a curving stroke downward, the end of the chalk
-giving the outline of the sail. In the drawing at the left a graded
-stroke was used, the eraser making the edge of the sail at the left and
-the chalk at the right.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 3 is desirable in representing the ocean. It is made by placing
-the chalk vertically upon the board and making a long, sweeping stroke,
-accented with the upper end of the chalk. In these sketches charcoal
-was used for the dark streaks in the water.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing the hull of the ship, try stroke 4, using a short piece of
-chalk or charcoal. The chalk is placed vertically and a curving stroke
-is used with no particular accent. Add details with touches of chalk or
-charcoal.</p>

-
-
-<p>This plate was planned as a review lesson, as well as to give
-illustrations which teachers might use for a great variety of purposes.
-All these strokes have been given before and are easily applied.</p>
-
-<p>For the turkey, sketch lightly a circle; then with the side of the
-chalk add broad, gray strokes. See <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1. After this is done, add short
-touches with the side of the chalk, for the wings, legs, feathers, etc.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 2 was given on plate <a href="#img002">2</a>, and, with the addition of the little
-slanting and curving strokes here given, will produce the lighthouse.
-This sketch will perhaps be useful in connection with plate <a href="#img009">9</a>, in
-teaching the seacoast.</p>
-
-<p>Strokes 3 and 4 are similar to those given on plate <a href="#img005">5</a>. They are made by
-the use of curving strokes with the side of the chalk, the accent being
-upon the end forming the outline. This stroke is frequently used, the
-object to be drawn dictating the direction of the stroke. Apply these
-strokes in drawing the rat, the chickens, the mushrooms and the frog.</p>
-
-<p>In the tree sketch, a background of gray is first drawn with the side
-of the chalk; then the strokes given on plate <a href="#img006">6</a> are applied with
-charcoal, and the snowflakes added with strong touches of white chalk.
-If the candles are desired, omit the snow and use tiny strokes like
-those at 5.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 6 is desirable in representing the nest. After 6 is drawn, add
-stroke 4 for the eggs and finish the nest by using strong touches with
-the point of the chalk.</p>

-</div>
-
-
-<p>The strokes on plate <a href="#img020">20</a> are so well defined that it hardly seems
-necessary to describe them. For 1 a short piece of chalk is used, the
-side of the chalk giving the width of the line. At 2 the stroke is
-similar, the accent being at one end of the chalk. At 3 the stroke is
-slightly curving, the chalk being placed vertically, and the accent
-being upon the upper end of the chalk. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 4 is drawn by placing the
-chalk vertically upon the board, drawing it downward very quickly
-and twisting it to the horizontal position. Apply these strokes in
-sketching the lobster. First use stroke 3, then touches like 2;
-afterward strokes 1 and 4 for details.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 5 indicates the strokes first used in sketching the shells. In
-drawing the outside of the nautilus, use a long piece of chalk and with
-a curving stroke accented with the end, form the outline. With strokes
-similar to those at 2, sketch the light streaks in the shell, and add
-dark details with charcoal. Use the tip of the finger in softening the
-tones here and there.</p>
-
-<p>In drawing the section, sketch first the spiral curve, then the blended
-strokes connecting the outer with the inner curves of the spiral, and
-add charcoal for shadows.</p>
-
-<p>The oyster shell is drawn by the use of the lower stroke at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 5.
-Make the stroke, accenting a little at the left end of the chalk; then
-reverse the stroke, accenting with the right end, and add details with
-chalk and charcoal.</p>

-<p>The strokes and touches used upon plate <a href="#img021">21</a> are more delicate than any
-previously given, though similar in character. <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 is drawn with the
-side of the chalk, the accent being with the left end. Allow the hand
-to tremble a bit and the texture desired is more readily obtained.
-Stroke 2 is produced in the same manner. After these are drawn add the
-shades, stems, and leaf with charcoal, and high lights with touches of
-white chalk.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 3 is exactly like that at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2, plate <a href="#img020">20</a>, though drawn with
-a much smaller piece of chalk. A series of these strokes, with the
-addition of touches with the charcoal and point of the chalk, as
-indicated in the sketch, will produce the caterpillar.</p>
-
-<p>Strokes 4 and 5 are valuable in sketching a butterfly or moth. They
-are gray strokes with the side of the chalk, the pressure being upon
-the end forming the outline. In work of this kind study nature very
-carefully, as no sketch or copy can do what nature can for the teacher.
-After the general form of the butterfly is drawn with these light gray
-strokes, add the details, using touches of chalk or charcoal, and
-occasionally blending them with the tip of the finger.</p>

-<p>A very few lines will often indicate the pose or action of an animal.
-Try lines similar to those at 1; study other animals and try a few
-characteristic lines. See <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 for the squirrel and for the fish.</p>
-
-<p>After practicing the pose, try 2 without sketching the lines with the
-point of the chalk, but by using the side, as in previous sketches. To
-finish the sketch add the few details necessary, as shown in the other
-drawings.</p>
-
-<p>The strokes used in these sketches are given on several other plates.
-They are produced by using the side of about two-thirds of a stick of
-chalk, and by accenting or letting the pressure be greatest at the

-perhaps most evident where the pressure was upon the left end of the

-
-<p>Sketch first an egg shape, <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1, using half or two-thirds of a stick

-
-<p>Add to this a few blended strokes representing the form and position of
-head, tail and wing. The sketches at 2, 3 and 4 indicate upon which end

-gray or middle tones.</p>
-
-<p>After such drawings as those at 2, 3 and 4 are made, then add the

-studying these finished drawings that only a few touches are necessary
-to complete the sketches.</p>
-
-<p>In order to obtain a contrast between the background and the head of

-as a background. See plate <a href="#img012">12</a>.</p>

-position, drawn gradually downward, and at the same time twisted to the
-horizontal position at the middle of the stroke. Try this stroke in a
-great variety of positions. The spots produced will be found useful in
-much of the flower and leaf drawing. Apply these in the fleur-de-lis.</p>
-
-<p>The strokes at 2 for the leaves were given and described on plate <a href="#img004">4</a>,
-and may be appropriated wherever reeds or grasses are to be drawn.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 3 is simple, yet often found troublesome by pupils. Place the
-chalk in a vertical position, draw it quickly downward, twisting it to
-a nearly horizontal position. Let the accent be at the upper end of the
-stroke. Try a number of these strokes, letting them meet at the centre
-of the flower. In making the drawing of the pond-lily, accent the
-nearest petals.</p>
-
-<p>The reflection in the water, and the reeds in the background are
-obtained by delicate vertical strokes, crossed in the water by
-occasional horizontal touches. Use simple curving strokes for the lily
-pads.</p>

-<p>Here is given another literature illustration, which is drawn with such
-strokes as those indicated in the upper part of the plate.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 1 has been described many times already. After this is drawn
-indicate the distance by the use of a few touches with charcoal, and
-the water with a delicate line or two of chalk. Let the strokes be
-horizontal.</p>
-
-<p>The rocks are represented with such strokes as <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3. See also plate <a href="#img009">9</a>,
-stroke 3. Accent here and there for the light touches, and add bits of
-charcoal for the dark.</p>
-
-<p>Stroke 2 is drawn by placing the chalk in a vertical position, and
-drawing it in the desired direction with a rather irregular or uneven
-stroke. See stroke 3, plate <a href="#img015">15</a>. When the strong, bright tones are
-desired, accent with the chalk, and when the gray tones are necessary,
-hardly touch the board. The windows are added with strong strokes of
-charcoal.</p>

-
-
-<p>This plate was planned especially for arithmetic lessons, as it shows
-in the sketches the various processes through which the cotton passes
-before reaching the retailer, thus suggesting a number of practical
-problems. It may be used quite as well in geography, history, and
-nature study.</p>
-
-<p>Spot 1 is produced by massing a bit of chalk and then rubbing it into
-the desired shape by the use of the finger tip. The pod is drawn with a
-short stick of charcoal, used in the same manner as the chalk.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 shows the stroke for the sky and horizon, and has already been
-described in many other lessons.</p>
-
-<p>To produce the effect shown at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3 use the side of a short piece of
-chalk, and with a rather irregular stroke draw the twigs and stems.
-Accent the spots for the cotton balls.</p>
-
-<p>In the other small sketches the strokes are so evident that they
-hardly need description. A white, smooth sky, erased where the mills
-and chimneys appear, will produce the effect in the lowest drawing. A
-little charcoal may be added for the darkest tones, a stroke of the
-eraser for the smoke, and little touches of chalk for the windows.</p>

-<p>These sketches were also suggested for problems in arithmetic. The
-problems relate to lumbering, measurement, and commission.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 1 illustrates the beginning of a forest sketch. With a single
-stroke of the chalk, accented at the lower end, draw the sky. With a
-second more delicate stroke show the distance; then with a few quick,
-nearly vertical strokes with the eraser show the positions of the
-trees. Later with chalk or charcoal and the use of such strokes as
-those given on plate <a href="#img002">2</a>, and at <abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 3 on this plate, add the shading in
-the tree trunks.</p>
-
-<p><abbr title="Number">No.</abbr> 2 shows the strokes useful in drawing the camp, the wood pile, or
-the lumber. These have already been given in such sketches as those on
-plate <a href="#img015">15</a>.</p>
-
-<p>The sketch of the house in the original had the dimensions marked upon
-it, and the pupils were to find the shingles required for the roof, the
-clapboards for the walls, etc.</p>
-
-<p>Before trying this sketch, study plates <a href="#img015">15</a> and <a href="#img016">16</a> for strokes and

-<p>The accompanying plate was taken from a lesson in a first grade. The
-little boy was dressed in an impromptu costume of cotton batting, and
-the background hastily sketched by the teacher.</p>
-
-<p>The horizon was drawn as on plate <a href="#img009">9</a>; then a few soft oblique
-strokes were added to the sky. The shore was drawn with irregular
-back-and-forth strokes, as in many of the previous sketches, and a
-sheet was tacked to the board in order to obtain the white foreground.</p>
-
-<p>An almost vertical stroke accented with the end of the chalk was used
-in drawing the icebergs, and a few strokes of charcoal were added.</p>
-
-<p>The huts were drawn with a curving stroke accented with the upper end
-of the chalk, and they were finished by applying stroke 2, plate <a href="#img003">3</a>, and
-adding a few details with the point of the chalk.</p>
-
-<p>Any teacher can easily arrange such backgrounds and costumes with
-the simplest material at hand, and in this manner add essentially
-to the interest and value of a lesson. A Japanese Day, An Indian
-Entertainment, A Soldiers’ Camp Ground, A Lumber Camp, and many others,
-are easily arranged.</p>

-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; depends upon and cannot survive without widespread
-public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate

-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg&#8482; electronic works
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg&#8482; concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Project Gutenberg&#8482; eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org">www.gutenberg.org</a>.
-</div>
-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg&#8482;,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
