A useful chart which shows the growth of Canada is to be found in
Taylor's _Cardinal Facts of Canadian History_, reproduced in Duncan's
_The Canadian People_. An Illustrated Chart of Canadian History is
published by the United Editors Company, of Toronto.
NOTE-BOOKS AND CLASS EXERCISES
In the Fourth Form, pupils should copy into a notebook the black-board
work--topical outlines, time chart, etc., as a basis for review and for
class exercises in composition. Such a topical summary, the joint work
of teacher and class, is the best means of review for examination
purposes, when one is held.
Pupils may occasionally be asked to make from the text-book, without
preceding class work, a topical analysis either of a subject which is
treated consecutively in the book, such as the War of 1812-14, or of a
subject that requires the pupil to collect his material from various
parts of the book, or even from several books. In the latter case the
teacher should direct the pupil to the proper sources.
