This study attempted to collect material for the improvement of the teaching of technical skills in home economics education. Four kinds of tests were given : cutting with scissors, threading a needle, measuring the lengths of lines, and measuring with the eye. The subjects for this study ranged from the fifth grade pupils to the eleventh grade students. The results can be summarized as follows : 1. The four skills generally developed according to the grade, but several different tendencies in the development of each skill were observed. 2. Considerable variations were observed among individuals. 3. The tendencies in the development of each skill and the individual variations should be treated with due consideration both in the curriculum of home economics education and in the teaching area.
