What reading level is An Ideal School Or Looking Forward book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
. But the feature that ennobles the work and gives it right to consideration over all other methods of teaching is its recognition of the slow pupil, its hold- ing of his rights as sacred as any other's. . . . With my own little slow ones I saw one after another, after a short time of quiet study apart with his teacher, begin to advance from the point where he had been master of his work. They did not go hesitatingly into the new lessons. Young as some of them were, they yet under- stood what t...hey were working for. They grasped the reality of something definitely accomplished from day to day and gained confidence. Then, as I watched them push ahead under this new inspiration, a question forced itself upon me and would not be overlooked: What right have we, teachers or parents, to allow our children to begin their school life under the stigma of stupid or dullard until after every opportunity has been used to develop their best powers? But that de- velopment can only come when the child is taken at his own level, not an arbitrary line placed by twelve, fifteen, or twenty others representing a wide range of mental and physical capacities.
