Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common School Spelling Book American school children, from the descendants of the early colonists to the little immigrants of today, come from many races. These races do not attach the same sounds to the letters of the English alphabet. But if American chil dren may see in the pages of their first spelling book the usual combinations of English sounds in words, if they are made to feel the strength and beauty and natural growth of these words, they will develop instinctively a kind of language patriotism. They will come to know that the languages of their parents are represented just as truly in the structure of the English language as their races are rep resented in the American people. These different race-elements in our language have brought with them their conflicting systems of spelling. Nevertheless, in spite of this conflict, the majority of Eng lish words are fairly regular in spelling; that is, they are spelled according to rational principles.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jones Spelling Book, Vol. 1: Grades Two, Three and Four If there is any subject in the common school whose teaching has been a disappointment to teachers themselves, that subject is spelling. In spite of new and improved methods of teaching spelling, in spite of more time spent upon spelling, and in spite of efforts to reform English spelling, students throughout the eight grades of our public schools continue to disappoint us in their spelling. Then, too, the high school graduate seems as likely as ever to mar his thesis by frequent misspelling; the letters of business men are far from satisfactory in spelling; and, finally, the college graduate continues to show us that he is by no means a master of spelling. This is a formidable array of evidence against our teaching of spelling, and from every quarter comes the cry, What is the matter with our spelling teaching? The answer to this question may come from either or both of two sources; namely, (1) our spelling material, or word lists, may be at fault, and (2) our methods of teaching these lists may be bad. But when we note the different methods that have been used in teaching spelling in the last few years, and apparently with no great difference in ultimate success, it would seem that it is time for us to investigate our spelling material. Are the spelling lists which we are giving our students good or bad? Are these lists made up of words which children actually use, grade for grade, in their own free written speech? Or are they full of words which are as far beyond these children as our reading and arithmetic materials once were? It is this significant question that prompted the author of this book to conduct an eight years' research in the field of spelling material. Since this spelling book is based on the results of that research, a brief description of the same is here given.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Primary School Spelling-Book: Designed for Primary and Intermediate Schools Experience has convinced the author that the old method of requiring children to study words in columns, arranged according to their accent and number of syllables, and to spell them orally, with out reducing the exercise to practice by writing the words, is a useless task, and will never accomplish its design. Children may be able to spell words correctly when pronounced by the teacher; but, without frequent practice in writing, they will mis spell them in composition. The recent reports of school committees, upon this subject, bear testimony to the truth of this conclusion.

Download or read book A Spelling Book Classic Reprint written by Georgia Alexander and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-06-14 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Spelling Book Improved methods in the teaching of spelling are replacing old ones as rapidly as the modern principle of teaching form through content is gaining recognition in schoolroom practice. The principles underlying the teaching of spelling are precisely those underlying the enriching and shortening of the entire course of study, by which the child takes a short cut to knowl edge through an appeal to his interest and the power gained through the cultivation of his mind. So long as we hammer at the child's brain as though it were so much cold steel in the belief that if we hammer hard enough and long enough some impression must be made, so long will the teaching of spelling meet with a greater or less degree of failure. It is a common fallacy for teachers to believe that if they teach the letters of a word, time will fill in the empty form with the proper content. Two things are forgotten in this process: first, that in the human mind nothing dwells in isolation and that the child puts some content into every form he learns a wrong one if he is not supplied with the right one and second, that the child, realizing that his teacher is indifferent to his knowing the content of the word, grows both mentally and morally careless.

Download or read book Champion Spelling Book written by Warren E. Hicks and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Champion Spelling Book: For Public and Private Schools For years teachers, principals, superintendents, and school boards everywhere have been wearied by the cry of business men, "The boys that you send to us can't spell." In Cleveland an educational commission of prominent citizens made an investigation in 1906 and reenforced the cry. But two years later, Cleveland girls and boys won their famous victory in the National Education Association spelling contest of 1908. The methods by which the reformation was wrought and the victory won underlie this book, hence its name. The intensive teaching of two new words daily and the employment of spelling contests, making drill and review effective, are the prominent features that led to success. There is no reason why similar results may not be secured elsewhere by following similar methods, as explained more fully in the following pages. The course includes six sections, numbered I, II, III IV, V, and VI. Each section is designed for a year's work. Grateful acknowledgment is made to the thousand or more Cleveland teachers, from whose grade lists the vocabulary of the Champion Spelling Book has been selected.
