Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons in the Speaking, and Writing of English, Vol. 1: Book One Language Lessons The study of English is of supreme importance to the people of the United States. With no other subject in the curriculum is the national well-being so intimately connected. The very existence of the republic depends in no small measure upon the possession and use of a language that carries the same meaning clearly and unequivocally to every citizen, of whatever race or traditions. This would be true even if language were merely an instrument of communication which left unchanged the mind and character of its user. But, as everyone knows, no language can be used habitually without modifying profoundly the forms of thought, the knowledge, the beliefs, the traditions, the ideals, and the character of anyone who uses it. The English language is therefore the most potent single force now transforming our heterogeneous population into a homogeneous and unified people. But this is not all. Language, not as an instrument of use, but as an object of study, is unsurpassed for the development of the thinking powers. True of all languages, this is especially true of English, the whole organization and meaning of which exercise the logical and rational faculties. Whatever may be the case with other languages, English cannot be studied as a purely formal discipline. The content is of greater importance than the form; and the content of language is as varied as human life and almost as educative. It is desirable, therefore, that English should be taught in our schools not only in such ways as will provide a uniform in strument of clear and exact communication, but also in such ways as will cultivate the power of clear and exact thinking, and establish noble ideals of life and character. Success in this arduous but inspiring task lies in the hands of the teachers of our common schools and of those who have the power to lighten or make heavy their task by providing or with holding the proper conditions and means of labor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mother Tongue, Vol. 1: Lessons in Speaking, Reading and Writing English All these common things, if they could talk, might ask you a hundred questions about them selves. But to every question you would give the same answer: I do not know. Yet the com mon things are the most interesting, after all, and are best worth studying. One of the common things which serve you every day is the English language. You have used this language ever since you began to talk. You have spoken it everywhere - at home, at school, at play. You are constantly using it. It is your servant. Do you know what it does for you? How much do you know about it? Tell me this: Do all children speak the same language? No. You say in English, I'go to school. The German boy says, Ich gehe in die Schule. The French boy says, Je vais a l'ecole. You speak in the English language, the German boy in the German language, the French boy in the French language. Every language has names of its own for all common things. You often Speak of your house Were you French, you would say ma maison if you were German, you would say mein Haus instead.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Language Lessons, Vol. 2 This book is designed to give pupils of the inter mediate and higher grades of elementary schools such practice as will enable them to speak and write the English language correctly. Correct habits of speaking and writing are gained far more readily by careful practice and by imitation of good models than by a memorizing of rules or by a scientific analysis of the language; hence the study of good American literature has been made a marked fea ture of the work in this book.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Modern English, Vol. 1: Elementary Lessons in English The two books of the Modern English Course are closely related, not only in a common purpose to arouse interest in the correct use of the English of to-day, but in the means by which this purpose is to be attained. Both books aim to make pupils able to express their own thoughts with freedom and satisfaction, to understand with ease the thoughts of others, and to appreciate when such thoughts are expressed with power, beauty, or grace. Instead of relying upon technical grammar to mold the daily speech of children, emphasis is laid upon practice in speaking, reading, interpreting, and writing under the guidance of the teacher, who should have a deep interest in the language and be master of its forms and uses.

Download or read book Speaking and Writing English written by Bernard M. Sheridan and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Speaking and Writing English: A Course of Study for the Eight Grades of the Elementary School, With Practical Suggestions for Teaching Composition and a Full Set of Composition Standards This Course of Study was originally published in pamphlet form, under the present title, for use in the public schools of Lawrence, Massachusetts. The first edition was printed in October, 1915. So great a demand for the book followed that a second and a third edition were exhausted within a little over a year from the date of the first appearance. The publication of the work in regular book form is in response to a persistent demand for the Course from superintendents and teachers who have urged that it be made permanently available for their use. Several new chapters have been added to Part One in the present edition. These, for the most part, are taken from the author's "Suggestions for the Improvement of Written Composition," published privately in January, 1917. Careful revision of other parts of the work has been made, wherever the results of the thorough trial of the plan in Lawrence have seemed to justify it. In the work of the primary grades considerable new material of practical value to teachers has been inserted. The number of illustrative compositions has been considerably increased. The grade "standards" are made to conform to the results of the author's continued first-hand study of children's capacity for growth in oral and written expression under this scheme of composition work. These changes mark no departure from the original aim and method of the plan. They merely serve to make both clearer to the teacher. In the writing of this Course ideas and suggestions from many sources were freely drawn upon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Good English Oral and Written Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by William H. Elson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Good English Oral and Written, Vol. 1 This book is intended for use in the third and fourth years of the elementary school. The authors believe that children speak and write for the same reason that adults do - to tell something that is in their minds, something related to their own experiences, some thing that has a note of personal interest or preference or Opinion. Therefore, the material on which conversation and written exercises are based has been selected with refer ence to its living interest to children and its vital relation to their experiences. This material, moreover, has had thorough test in the classroom. It is now generally agreed that children learn to speak and write interestingly and effectively by speaking and writing under proper inspiration and guidance. Something to say and someone to say it to - an interesting subject and an interested audience - are prime requisites for growth of language power. In this, moreover, oral speech holds first claim on the atten tion of the school, because we speak more than we write. Throughout this text the authors have held clearly in mind these fundamental principles. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Oral English or the Art of Speaking This book has been written to supply a need. The vocational and civic importance of the ability to speak has been recognized by teachers of English throughout the country, but as yet the meaning of Oral English is rather vaguely and variously understood. We are con scious of our goal, but we lack method in our efforts to attain it. It is true that we no longer imagine that the art of speaking can be taught in a half-dozen lessons to the commencement speaker or the interscholastic debater.
