Teaching is the fundamental, all Comprehensive duty of the teacher; it is more than merely out a course of study, assigning and hearing recitations, drilling and keeping order Teaching is attempting to shape the child according to ideas. Test your teaching by asking: 1-In what are your pupils interested in school? Ont of school? 2-Are their interests a hinderance or a help to school work? 3-Do your pupils can they centrate their whole attention on the subject before them? 4-Have your pupils ever been taught how to learn? 5-Do they know how to enconimize their time and effort? 6-To What extent do pupils can they- control their movements? Do they sit, stand and walk gracefully? 7-Are they prompt to respond to any demand made on their minds or bodies? 8-Do they give their attention in all things immediately and unreservedly to jast what they are doing and to nothing else? Are they able to do these things? Questions from teachers. Can a teacher enforce workin position and declamation? Ans.
