Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Children's Second Reader IF Heaven lies about us in our infancy the realm of poetry cannot be far distant. It is a significant, as well as a beautiful fact, that our poets have been so noble and true that we are glad to have the children learn of them. They have manifested, too, such a love of innocence and childhood in their home lives, that the little ones who never have had the privilege of looking into their faces may yet understand this beautiful relationship, and so, being drawn closer to their lives, appreciate and love their poems. In introducing the poets Longfellow and Whittier into the following pages the author has not undertaken any comprehensive account of their lives; but the purpose has been to picture them to the children in such a way as to make them real personages, and also to lead up to such of their poems as appeal to the little ones.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American School Readers: First Reader The american school first reader is planned as the children's second reading book. It assumes that they can read the usual vocabulary of a good primer, either of this series or of any other. It is, however, closely related to the American School Primer. The children and their pets, whose acquaintance was made in that book, appear again here, with new experiences, in the earlier pages. But the keynote of the book is children's lore. The characters of the primer appear less and less frequently and finally drop out altogether. The latter part of the book contains children's literature only. The authors believe that this literature is of so excel lent a quality that it will intensify the interest of chil dren in the reading book, and hence in learning to read, and will also implant the seeds of good literary taste. Carefully organized lists of words for phonic drill are given on pages 135 - 137. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wide Awake Second Reader In a Second Reader there is more rapid growth in the vocabulary and a wider range of subject-matter than in the First Reader, but the pupils are still little children, advancing only a step at a time into the wide field of learning, and these steps must be so graded as to be short and easy for their little feet. So the lessons must at first be short and simple, and the progression to longer and more difficult work must be slow and steady.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beacon Second Reader In the "Beacon Second Reader" the author has chosen for his stories only those of recognized literary merit; and while it has been necessary to rearrange and sometimes rewrite them for the purpose of simplification, yet he has endeavored to retain the spirit which has served to endear these ancient tales to the children of all ages. The fairy story appeals particularly to children who are in the second school year. It has been proved by our ablest psychologists that at about this period of development, children are especially susceptible to the stimulus of the old folklore. They are in fact passing through the stage which corresponds to the dawn of the human race, when demons, dragons, fairies, and hobgoblins were as firmly believed in as rivers and mountains. As a test of this theory the author asked hundreds of second-grade and third-grade school children to recall the stories which they had read during the preceding year, and to express their preferences. The choice of more than ninety percent proved to be either folklore stories, pure and simple, or such tales as contained the folklore element.

Download or read book Story Hour Readers Revised written by Ida Coe and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story Hour Readers Revised: Book Two During the last few years, the teaching Of reading has been exhaustively studied from many angles, and the current trend towards simplification of material in the early grades is very marked. The Story Hour Readers Revised are in harmony with these recent tendencies. They attack the easiest problems first, employ a simple though relatively extensive vocabulary, and secure the children's interest through variety of content. In Second Year First Half of the revised series, the method used in the earlier books is adapted to the teaching problems of this grade. The child's phonetic power is developed in dealing with new words; dramatiza tion and oral reproduction continue to be important features Of the language work; and silent reading, begun in First Year Second Half, is here extended to the observation and discrimination of thought groups. Content. The material used in the Revised Second Year First Half has a wide range of interest, including simple legendary and historical narratives as well as folk tales and fanciful stories. Mechanical features. This book preserves in the earlier stories the phrase grouping which was a feature ofthe Primer and Book One, but the lines throughout have been skillfully kept to normal length. Through this ar rangement the child derives from the phrase grouping the assistance which he requires, and at the same time becomes accustomed to a normal page of type. After the first four stories the rigid phrase grouping is step by step abandoned. An important mechanical aid in the use of the book for Silent reading is supplied by the blank lines that mark the divisions of all thought groups which do not end with the page.
