Be Gratified But Not Satisfied
Do not be satisfied that these simple facts, and the use which has been made of them, has proven resultful. Ideas are only of value because of the profit which comes from their continued use. Prove their worth to your utter satisfaction and then by continuous effort make them a part of the mental makeup. Become thoroughly familiar with these principles and see that the child knows just how to proceed in the use of them. Remember it is the visual faculty you are cultivating for great future usefulness, not merely learning a list of words. Review these pictures many times, use the same ones, do not make new ones.
Avoid the mistake of seeing only one object at a time; always see two, as the House and the Clock, the Clock and the Flowers. This causes one picture to recall the next, because the object appears in two pictures, or is associated with two objects. One by natural mental operations recalls the other.
For further practice and development add to the list of forty words now learned, some of those following, or make a list of your own. Any words will do, picture them two and two and review them after you have added ten or so.
