Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Phases of Reading in the Elementary School, 1919: Reprinted From the Series Published in the Educational Journal Then, too, reading is complex in that the attempt to analyze a reading situation is not an easy task. To discover why a child fails in reading and to prescribe an adequate remedy calls forth the best skill which the teacher possesses; a task which is complicated by the truth that there is no panacea for poor reading, but every case, in a very real sense, must be judged upon its own merits. The first step in studying a reading situation in the elementary school is to divide the problem in as many phases as necessary and then to attack each phase in a systematic and deliberate manner. In the present paper, I propose to discuss only oral reading, leaving a consideration of silent reading to a later paper. Obviously the first thing to do is to find out what sort of vocabulary children in the lowest grades have at their command. If the State Texts (free and Treadwell Primer, First and Second Readers) have been followed as basal texts, it is well for the principal to examine the children as to their power to recognize at sight the more common words in the vocabularies; of the several books. The Primer and First Reader contain word lists which the principal may use. Or the same words may be found upon the flash cards which the publishers of the series have for sale. In case some other series of readers have been used for basal readers, the word lists will be found either in the books themselves or in the manuals with which the publishers accompany their readers. In all grades from the low second to the high eighth (b2-as), inclusive, children should be tested on that very obvious accomplishment, the rate of oral reading. All other things being equal, a child who can read unfamiliar material suited to his years at a standard rate of speed is a better reader than the child who just stumbles along. We have worked out very definite stand ards in this regard and the principal has here at his disposal an accurate meas uring rod. In my own work. I use what is known as Starch's Reading Test, Form A. This consists of eight selections, one for each grade, which the children are asked to read orally. These selections have been carefully selected from a well known series of reading texts and are admirably adjusted to the powers of normal children. For the sake of making this clear the first few lines of each selection is reproduced herewith. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Programme of Studies for the Elementary School: Grades I to Vi Learning to read in the modern way is as simple and natural as learning to talk. The teacher bases her procedure on the principle that as a child learns to talk by talking, so he learns to read by reading. This principle being accepted, teaching to read resolves itself into providing the pupil with plenty of suitably graded reading material, and standing by to help him in his use of it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originating in a recent CIERA conference held at the University of Michigan, this book brings together the nation's most distinguished researchers to examine how readers understand text and how comprehension is assessed. The first part provides both national and historical contexts for the study of reading comprehension. The second part examines how vocabulary, motivation, and expertise influence comprehension, and it includes analyses of the developmental course and correlates of comprehension. Chapters in the third part consider how schools focus on comprehension for instruction and assessment. The fourth part includes chapters on large-scale assessment that analyze how test formats and psychometric characteristics influence measures of reading comprehension. At the end of each part is a commentary--written by an expert--that reviews the chapters, critiques the main points, and synthesizes critical issues. Key features of this outstanding new book include: *Integration of Research and Practice--provides a bridge between conceptual issues studied by researchers concerned with reading comprehension theories and practical issues addressed by educators concerned with classroom instruction and assessment. *Comprehension Focus--provides a thorough history and rigorous research-based analyses of reading comprehension. *Assessment Focus--provides innovative approaches to comprehension assessment that include the influences of vocabulary, decoding, and motivation. *Synthetic Commentaries--provides periodic summaries that analyze and synthesize research, practices, and issues discussed in each part. *Expertise--contributing authors and commentators are highly respected authorities on reading comprehension (see table of contents). This text is appropriate for educational and psychological researchers, reading educators, and graduate students in education and psychology. It is part of the CIERA series, which includes the following volumes: Taylor and Pearson: Teaching Reading: Effective Schools, Accomplished Teachers (2002) Van Kleeck, Stahl, and Bauer: On Reading Books to Children: Parents and Teachers (2003) Hoffman and Schallert: The Texts in Elementary Classrooms (2005)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Reading by Grades: Second Year Tm; chief purpose of this volume, as of the others in the series, is to help the pupil learn to read; and to this object everything else is sub servient. Bearing in mind the fact that only those children who like to read ever become good readers, the author has endeavored so to construct and arrange the several lessons as to make each reading exercise a source of pleasure to all. The successive stories, poems, and other pieces have been chosen so as to present a varied succession of thoughts and images pleasing to the child - thus stimulating his interest from day to day, arousing his curiosity, directing his imagination, and adding to his store of knowledge. The gradation is as nearly perfect as possible, each lesson being but a little more difficult than that which precedes it. All new words that would be likely to offer the slightest difficulties to the learner are printed in the word lists at the beginning of the selection. Since each recitation must necessarily be short, all the longer pieces have been divided into parts - each part being sufficient in most cases for one lesson. This method obviates the objection usually made to long selections in books of this grede, and makes it possible to present in complete form several adaptations of productions that are by common consent recognized as classical. The constant trend of the lessons in all the volumes in this series is towards leading the learner, as soon as he is prepared for it, to a knowledge and appreciation of the best things in the permanent literature of the world.
