Download or read book Uncovering the Logic of English A Common Sense Solution to America s Literacy Crisis written by Denise Eide and published by Logic of English, Inc. This book was released on 2011-01-27 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "English is so illogical!" It is generally believed that English is a language of exceptions. For many, learning to spell and read is frustrating. For some, it is impossible... especially for the 29% of Americans who are functionally illiterate. But what if the problem is not the language itself, but the rules we were taught? What if we could see the complexity of English as a powerful tool rather than a hindrance? --Denise Eide Uncovering the Logic of English challenges the notion that English is illogical by systematically explaining English spelling and answering questions like "Why is there a silent final E in have, large, and house?" and "Why is discussion spelled with -sion rather than -tion?" With easy-to-read examples and anecdotes, this book describes: - the phonograms and spelling rules which explain 98% of English words - how English words are formed and how this knowledge can revolutionize vocabulary development - how understanding the reasons behind English spelling prevents students from needing to guess The author's inspiring commentary makes a compelling case that understanding the logic of English could transform literacy education and help solve America's literacy crisis. Thorough and filled with the latest linguistic and reading research, Uncovering the Logic of English demonstrates why this systematic approach should be as foundational to our education as 1+1=2.

Download or read book English Reading Lessons written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Reading Lessons: To Serve as an Introduction to the Models of English Literature, for the Use of College, Academies, and Schools The Work which we now publish as an introduction to the Models of English Literature, has been compiled in the same spirit, and with the same care, as the Models themselves. In preparing it, we have avoided with the same scrupulous attention, as in the Models, any thing that might be, in the slightest degree, injurious to Religion or Morality, or to that good harmony which should ever be preserved among students. As the present work is particularly intended for those who, being already able to spell and read, have not yet, however, reached the higher branches of English Literature, we have not thought it necessary to arrange the lessons under different heads, Narrative, Descriptive, etc. Still it has been our endeavor to select none but pieces calculated to captivate the attention, instruct the mind, adorn the imagination, and form the heart of the young reader.

Book excerpt: The Questions Would Teach Her More Than the Answers It wasn't long after arriving in Oxford for graduate school that twenty-two-year-old Andrea Lucado - preacher's daughter from Texas - faced not only culture shock, a severe lack of coffee, but also some unexpected hard questions: Who am I? Who is God? Why do I believe what I believe? "So many nights in Oxford, I felt like the details of my faiths were getting fuzzier. Nights turned restless with the questions and the thoughts. I questioned God's existence and the doubt, it was getting into my bones...." In this engaging memoir, Andrea speaks to all of us who wrestle with faith, doubt, and spiritual identity. Join Andrea as she navigates the Thames River, the Oxford Atheist Society, romance in ancient pubs--and a new perspective on who God is. As Andrea learned, sometimes it takes letting go of old ideas to discover lasting truth.
