Excerpt from The Westminster Normal Class Outlines: Or, the Christian Teacher in the Sabbath-School; Middle Course The Church to-day is making provision to commit the things which it has learned of God "to faithful men who shall be able to teach others also." Already is the Church training its teachers for Sabbath-school work. Hundreds of Normal Classes are in operation, using as their text-book the Junior Course of these Outlines. Attention is called again to the action of the General Assembly of 1879 as an indication of the interest of the Church in Normal-Class work. This second volume pursues the same general plan approved by that Assembly. That plan was based on the fact that the two factors in the teacher's preparation are a knowledge of the Bible and a knowledge of how to teach the Bible, or of what to teach and how to teach. General Plan. In this, our Middle Course, the lessons on Bible-study are kept together in Part First, and those on Bible-teaching in Part Second. This change in the grouping of the lessons is not designed to separate the two elements in actual classwork, but merely to keep together subjects of the same kind for convenient reference. Each Normal-Class recitation should combine a lesson from the first part with a lesson from the second part. Thus the matter and method of teaching will be acquired together, each will add interest to the other, and the recitation will be enlivened by variety.
