Christopher Dock: Pioneer Christian Schoolmaster on the Skippack
Christopher Dock, a Colonial schoolmaster and devoted Christian, loved his students. He pointed them toward Christ by word and example. His methods of teaching, motivation, and discipline were very practical and effective. Teachers will find inspiration, encouragement, and practical help in this brief biography and collection of Dock's writings, which include Schulordnung ("School Management"), a letter to his pupils, rules of conduct for children, Christian rules for children, and several hymns.
