Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictation Spelling Book, Vol. 1 This book is the result of a plan successfully worked out in the class-room by the compilers, and is therefore the direct outcome of practical experience. The chief object of the dictations is the teaching of correct spelling, but there are other distinct and definite aims. The two books constituting the series are in tended to cover the spelling work of four or five years, beginning with the fourth year. The first few dictations present little difficulty except that of paragraph form; but as the work advances, beside words which already form part of the child's speaking vocabulary, and are therefore valuable only as words to be correctly spelled, each selec tion also presents certain entirely new words with which the child has no acquaintance, and which are valuable not only as spelling material, but also as they serve to enrich his vocabulary. In teaching such words, it seems most essential that they be presented in their proper relation. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

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.

Download or read book The Story of English Speech Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Charles Noble and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of English Speech, Vol. 1 His book is an attempt to put into a small volume the material wanted for my Freshman English work in the History of the Language. What has been done in this field so well by Lounsbury, Emerson, Bradley, Sweet and others, is appre ciated, and there is no thought, particularly, of improving upon their work. What I wanted was something like their books, but briefer, combined with an outline of the more important forms of the West Saxon and the Middle English grammar, and a number of short selections which should show the development of the language, like Cor son's handbook, but much less extended. I have tried also, to emphasize as well as I could, the close relation be tween language development, literary conditions, and social and political movements. This is, to me, far the most interesting phase of the subject, and the one that is most likely to awaken a vital interest in the student and correlate the work in language with other studies. To acknowledge my indebtedness to other writers would be simply to name, in addition to those already referred to, every thing on the general subject upon which I have been able to lay hands. To Professor Ansley, of the State University of Iowa, Professor Robinson, of Harvard Uni versity, and Dr. Craigie, of the New English Diction ary, Oxford, I am indebted for kindly reading and criti cising the manuscript at different stages of its growth. Probably, in spite of the care that has been taken, many mistakes will appear; and if any, outside of my classes, read the book I shall be very grateful for their criticisms.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lippincott's Horn-Ashbaugh Speller for Grades One to Nine, Vol. 1: Grades I, II, III, and IV If you will examine the book, you will see that most of the lessons are numbered with arabic numerals. These lessons con tain the words found to be used most frequently. You will notice, also, that beginning with grade three there are in each grade supplementary lessons, marked 8-1, 8-2, etc. These lessons include additional words which are somewhat less frequently used. The supplementary lessons are distributed by grades, so that pupils who finish the minimum work for any grade will have additional lessons to study for the remainder of the year. However, before undertaking these supplementary lessons, the teacher should make sure that her pupils have learned thoroughly the minimum list which contains the important words. Plan of Review. - The provision for the complete elimination of spelling errors is particularly efficient and thoroughgoing. Not only are those words which most commonly give difficulty arranged for, but the method of testing insures that each pupil will eliminate his Own peculiar errors.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Word and Sentence Book a Graded Course in Spelling, Vol. 1 Spelling has an important place as a language exercise, and ability to use the pen in taking sentences from dictation is an efficient aid to composition. Writing sentences from dictation compels attention to details besides spelling. The correct use of capitals and punctuation marks, the division of words into syllables, and the selection of words which have homonyms cannot be overlooked. If proficiency in these could be attained, the instruction in composition would be relieved of many difficulties.

Download or read book The Mastery of Words a Course in Spelling Arranged for Grades One to Five Inclusive Vol 1 written by Sarah Louise Arnold and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mastery of Words a Course in Spelling Arranged for Grades One to Five Inclusive, Vol. 1: A Series of Lessons The Mastery of Words provides a course in Spelling for all grades. Book One is intended for the first five grades; Book Two is arranged for Grades Six, Seven, and Eight. Books One and Two are combined in a complete edition, to which this pref ace relates. Children do not learn to spell through merely repeating in order the letters which make up words. Some children misspell because their pronunciation is slovenly. They do not hear the correct sound of the word. They must learn to hear truly. Others misspell because they do not clearly visualize the form of the word. They must be taught to give energetic attention to the printed form to see clearly. But even then children fail to spell correctly if they are completely ignorant of the pho netic value of the letters which make up the word. There is no remedy for such failures except constant attention to the sounds of letters in words. The Mastery of Words develops these powers. It provides for constant repetition of the ordinary phonograms which are regular in the majority of words. It secures clear enunciation, thus helping to overcome bad habits in speaking. It teaches the pupil to analyze words so that he is conscious of the real problem to be grappled with in spelling; and all the way along it provides exercises which prepare for the use of the dictionary.
