PREFACE

This bulletin of poems for childr en to memorize and books for them to read represents a growth. Shortly after the publication of the Iowa Elementary Course of Study the Department of Public Instruc­tion sent the schools a mimeographed list of poems for memorization in the elementary grades. This list was prepared by Miss 1\IJ:iabel I. Snedaker, Extension Supervisor, University Elementary School, especially for the use of the high school normal training classes. Its purpose was to supplement the literature unit of the elementary course of study. This list has been revised by Miss Snedaker and is included as Part I of this bulletin.

At the same time Miss Wilma Leslie Garnett, recently of the Uni­versity Elementary School, consented to prepare a parallel list of prose selections which have been found in her studies to rank high among children's choices. Her lists, also the result of several years' inves~igation, have also been prepared as a further suppl~ment to the elementary course of study and are included as P art II of the bulletin.

We express sincere appreciation to both these workers for the painstaking service they have given m helping the pupils of our schools to greater r eading enjoyment.

AGNES SAMUELSON,

Superintendent of Public Instruction.

INTRODl C"TORY STA 'l'EMENT

The memorization of poetry should add to the enjoyment of poetry. A memory list made up of poems children like is an important factor in accomplishing this result. To select poems liked by children a.nd suitable for memorization was the objective in compiling the list which follows. Many of the poems in this list have been read to pupils in all parts of Io·wa during extension visits to schools. The pupils voted on the poems liked best. For several years, teachers in Saturday classes have tried out lists of poems and reported ' those pre­ferred by their children.

An attempt has been made to compile a list broad enough to meet individual tastes. The list contains many short poems for the child who finds it difficult to memorize. Many poems well liked by children have not been included because they did not seem suitable for mem­orizatio-n. Such poem. belong in a r eading list. However, the teacher should feel free to add any poems liked by her pupils, which she considers suitable for memorization.

Each child should be encouraged to memorize at least ten poems. This does not mean that be should memorize ten poems by himself outside of class. Some of the poems should be memorized by the whole group during the class per·iod. The child may choose other poems from the list for his grade. Ali of these poems should be read in class, preferably by the teacher, so that the child is familiar with tli m before he begins his memory task.
