Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Teacher's Manual of Spelling The complaint is very common today that the present age is one of poor spellers. Business men particularly are prone to lament the fact that our present system of education does not turn out children as skilled in the intricacies of English spelling as were those of the good old days. These same business men further stipulate that the particular point of defect in our present system is lack of thoroughness and drill. The truth is that many children spell as well as children have ever spelled and acquire their mastery of words in a much shorter time and with much less effort than would have been possible under the old formal system of education. Actual tests of spelling ability show that the average skill in large groups is about the same today as that of similar groups twenty-five years ago. It is true that every class in almost every school has a certain percentage of disgracefully poor spellers, and that these children drag through the seventh and eighth grades and often through high school without ever really learning to spell. As a matter of fact there has never been a time in our educational history when this has not been more or less true. If our modern psychology has the value we claim for it, it should have given us methods by which all children of normal mentality could be taught to spell. The reasons why we still have so many spelling failures seem to be: First, that certain psychological fallacies have crept into our theory of teaching spelling, and, second, that the erroneous supposition has been made that modern methods eliminate the need for drill. This book is not theoretical; it is the result of five years experimental work with the problem. Over four hundred very poor spellers have been carefully examined and finally taught to spell.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Learning to Spell: A Manual for Teachers Using the Aldine Speller We remember the pupils who were able to spell these difficult words, and we forget those who were unable to spellthem. We remember the good spellers and forget how many poor ones there were. The question is not whether one or two could spell, or learn to spell such words, but could nearly every pupil in the school spell such words? If they could, what use did they make of their knowledge? The corollary to the proposition is, how many were unable to spell which.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Teaching of Spelling The purpose of this book is to bring together from all sources the more reliable and pertinent facts in the teaching of spelling, and to present them in their relation to the practical problems which the teacher has to face every day in the classroom. The book is an outgrowth of a thesis on "The Experimental Studies of Spelling," which embodied an exhaustive study of some ninety investigations. In the preparation of the book, this material was supplemented by such information as could be gathered from the general literature of the subject, including books and articles on methods of teaching and on the psychology of learning, and the better spelling texts of the day. A third source of material was the author's three years' experience as an elementary school principal and supervisor in testing, evaluating, and applying in actual classroom work the conclusions of the preceding studies. The author gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness to the many investigators and teachers whose fruitful labors have made this book possible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Common Essentials in Spelling: A Word List and Teacher's Manual for Elementary Schools There is a good deal of legitimate complaint concerning the present day grammar school course of study. It is charged that our standards are too exacting, our texts too voluminous, our subjects too congested, the teacher's time overcrowded, and a vast mass of work prescribed that must, necessarily, be done in a hasty, helter-skelter manner. In addition to these complaints, and largely as a result of the facts which they allege, come other charges: that an undue percentage of chil dren are over age, that far too many boys and girls drop out before finishing the common school course; that those who stay are thinly plated with an unsubstantial smattering of many things, and really have very little thorough grounding in even the commonest essentials of the common schools.

My question was When in doubt in regard to the spelling of a word, how do you assure yourself? The answer, in substance, was, I write the word, and when it looks right I assume it is correct. Upon further questioning, they were unanimous in the statement that they had adopted this method as a necessity after they had left school and entered upon the active duties of life. Only three or four, out of some hundreds questioned, thought of the word as they had learned it from the spelling book, and these were teachers.

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 Methods of Instruction written by William A. Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Methods of Instruction: How to Teach Reading, Pronunciation, and Spelling This little book does not claim to present a complete Manual of Instruction in Reading. It purposely avoids the discussion of many questions that arise in the Science of Elocution. The chief business of the teachers in Grammar and Primary Schools should be to develop easy, natural, and intelligent expression. The time must be spent almost exclusively with the art of reading; we must deal with the how to read, and not the why; we must not depend upon rules, but upon exercises. Therefore, this book presents only model exercises which, in kind, may be multiplied at the discretion of the teacher. It also contains many hints and suggestions bearing upon the teaching of reading, pronunciation, and spelling. A teacher who has to depend largely upon his own resources and methods, occasionally feels the need of a sympathizing and a helping friend. Books of reference and books on teaching are the true friends of earnest teachers. They help the teacher by warning him of dangerous methods and by giving the successful experiences of others. It is hoped that the remarks upon methods, the model exercises, the danger signals, and the suggestions may be found practical and useful.
