Download or read book A Primary Reader written by Emma Louise Smythe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primary Reader: Old-Time Stories, Fairy Tales and Myths, Retold by Children This book originated in a series of little reading lessons pre pared for the first grade pupils in the Santa Rosa public schools. The object of the lessons was three-fold: to provide reading matter for the little ones who had only a small vocabulary of sight words; to acquaint them early with the heroes who have come down to us in song and story; and to create a desire for literature. It has been my endeavor to follow Dr. G. Stanley Hall's suggestions in his monograph, How to Teach Reading, where he asks for true child-editions, made by testing many children with the work piece-meal and cutting and adapting the material till it really and closely fitted the minds and hearts of the children. Various stories were given to the pupils; discussions followed. After a time the story was produced orally by the children. Notes were made on expressions used and points of interest dwelt upon. Later the story was either written on the black board or mimeographed and put into the pupils' hands to read. It gave great delight to the children to recognize an old friend in a new dress, and as interest was aroused, but little difficulty was encountered in recognizing words that were indeed new in their sight vocabulary, but old servants in their oral vocabulary. The spirit of the book may be illustrated by referring to the roast turkey in the story of The Little Match Girl. The story was told as dear old Hans Christian Andersen gave it to the little German children of fifty years ago. But American children have a different idea of the fowl which graces the table at Christmas time. The story as it came from the lips of the chil dren referred to the turkey, and goose was used in only one instance. As the story was to appeal to our children, the word was changed to suit their ideas. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Fairy Tales From Folk Lore Classic Reprint written by Herschel Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-25 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Herschel Williams selected these twelve fairy tales from a great geographic range, mostly from across Europe, with two from North America and one from Japan. The tone of this story book is gentle and familiar, but without shying away from the occasionally gruesome details that make fairytales so enticing for younger readers. While many of the tropes are similar to the fairytales we are all familiar with from the Grimm brothers, with lots of events occurring in threes and forgotten younger siblings often turning out to have the wisdom, kindness or bravery their older siblings lack, these are a set of entirely different stories from around the world. The collective imagination of the various fairy tale tellers must have been limitless to create such a wide range of these magical stories. In the first of these stories, the Irish story Yellow Lily, the hero is a cocky young prince who loves to gamble, and is saved from a grisly fate by the eponymous Yellow Lily. Yellow Lily is a heroine who doesn't mind using her wits to lash the hero when he needs it, rather than a merely a meek story device. This story also contains the great tongue twister "Yellow Lily of Loch Lein," try saying that with your mouth full! Each of the other stories are at least as fascinating, such as the Scandinavian tale The Mysterious Prince which starts like Beauty And The Beast and ends very differently, or the Canadian The Goddess Of Light, which reads like a cross between Bluebeard and a creation myth. Princes, princesses, elves and giants all abound in these stories, and the evil ones are guaranteed to get their comeuppance.

Download or read book Little Stories for Little People Classic Reprint written by Annie Willis McCullough and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-25 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Stories for Little People The vocabulary used in this first supplementary reading-book is mainly confined to that found in five leading First Readers. For the most part, each lesson is a complete story. By story is meant a dramatic incident, however slight. The children's interest is gener ally better held by a story than by any other form of reading. It is noticeable in some First Readers that there is seldom any sequence of stories. Each new lesson introduces a fresh set of nouns and verbs bearing no relation to those of the story preceding. Many of these stories are arranged in little groups, the object being to retain the child's inter est in the characters, and the repeated use of the same, or similar, words, phrases, sentences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fables and Folk Stories As soon as a child has learned to make out simple sentences, the wise teacher looks about for something which it is worth while to read. The primer and the reader are necessarily sim ple, but the simplicity is, for the most part, below the child's intelligence. Children can understand by hearing long before they can understand by reading during the period when they are mastering the several combinations in which a boy, a rat, and a cat can be placed, and are acquiring the power of reading at sight, they are listening to books which are by no means so barren in their simplicity, and as soon as they are able to read the little stories which they find in their first readers they leave them behind.
