Standard: Third and fourth grades attain 50% improvement each month. Fifth and sixth grades should attain 66% improvement each month. Seventh and eighth grades should attain 75% improvement each month.
PREPARATION FOR REGULAR VISIT OF THE SUPERVISOR
First grade: Two models for every child at board.
Second grade: After the second month a writing lesson saved from the previous week; after the third month, a spelling lesson.
Third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth grades: Have on the desk ready for grading, the following: samples, spelling paper, language paper.
Give pupils an opportunity to see that all work to be inspected is ready the day previous to the supervisor’s visit. (For ordinary lessons one minute is ample time for preparation if folders are kept in good order.) Placing one lesson of the applied work in the folio each week, from which the final selection is to be made, will serve to keep the work uniformly good. This would also provide specimens for those who might be absent for a particular lesson written expressly for this purpose.
