Hints to the Teacher and Her Class. Eleventh Study
In teaching this lesson let the conductor sketch the outline of the map upon the board and drill upon the seas; then draw and name the islands; then drill upon the provinces, etc. Review until the lesson is learned by all the class.
The student should search all the references and be able to state the events connected with each locality.
It would be well for the student to find additional Scripture references to all the localities.
