The Play School Series, of which Educating by Story-Telling is a member, is based on the work of the Demonstration Play School of the University of California. Breaking away from the traditional idea of the subjects of study, this school has substituted a curriculum of activities—the natural activities of child life—out of which subjects of study naturally evolve. Succeeding volumes now in active preparation will relate to the other activities which form the educational basis for the work of the Play School, including Social, Linguistic, Moral, Big-Muscle, Rhythmic and Musical, Environmental and Nature, and Economic Activities. Each volume will be written by a recognized authority in the subject dealt with, as the author of Educating by Story-Telling is in her special field.
