Excerpt from Color Study: A Manual for Teachers and Students
The public-school teacher should not attempt to present color theories to primary or grammar-school pupils, but she will not be able to present the subject in a simple and interest ing manner if she does not possess general information beyond the facts she may state to her pupils. The first part of this book briefly explains some of the most important facts relating to color, which will assist teachers to awaken in their pupils the idea that Nature’s colors are always changing.
It is not claimed that the work here suggested for the public schools is the best possible course, but only that it forms a good basis for experiments, which will lead to more satisfactory results in color work.
Those who wish more than the brief outline of the two lead ing color theories given here, should consult Rood’s Modern Chromatics, The Theory of Color, by von Bezold, and George Field’s works on color.’ Those who desire more information.
