This pamphlet offers a series of illustrations for children to copy onto their slates, including images of common household objects and various buildings. Slate pictures “serve also to amuse the pupils when through with their studies; and have been introduced into the schools of Syracuse, N.Y., Salem, Mass., and other cities, with great satisfaction. The younger scholars can be made to trace the figures on thin paper with a lead pencil, if they cannot copy them on a common slate.”
