School of 1880.

Peabody Academy of Science,
Summer School of Biology.

The fifth session of the Summer School of Biology will be held
at the Museum of the Academy, beginning July 7th, and continuing
six weeks.

The course of instruction will be designed expressly for teachers
of the public and private schools. It will be elementary in its character
and will have a two-fold object: First, to present methods
of teaching from actual specimens. Second, to give some idea of
the methods of original investigation.

Special direction will be given to students in aiding them to make
collections for use in their own schools, and collecting trips for this
purpose will be made in the vicinity.
