"How to Teach Manners in the School-room" by Julia M. Dewey is an educational guide focused on the instruction of good manners within the classroom setting, likely written in the late 19th century. The book emphasizes the importance of teaching manners as a formal part of the school curriculum, recognizing that many children depend on school for their understanding of social etiquette. It highlights that teachers serve as role models in this educational process and provides a structured framework for imparting these skills to students. The opening of the text lays out the foundational principles behind teaching manners, asserting that children are keen imitators and that teachers must demonstrate politeness consistently in their interactions. Dewey discusses the necessity for deliberate lessons in manners, stating that positive, informal instruction should accompany real-life examples, allowing for practice and reinforcement. The introduction asserts that by instilling a strong sense of courtesy, not only do students benefit academically, but they are also better prepared for respectful social interactions throughout their lives. This framing sets the tone for the practical lessons and directives that follow in subsequent chapters, aiming to foster refined behavior that transcends the classroom.
