Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Complete Course in Reading Learning to Read. - The phrase "learning to read" has two meanings. The first belongs to little children, who, between their fourth and seventh years, come to attach meanings to the printed or written words. When the pupil has learned to know by sight a few hundred common words, and can, without help, understand and enjoy the simple stories suited to his age, he has, in one sense, "learned to read." The more he reads, the better he is able to gain from a printed or written page the ideas conveyed. But his powers are only enlarged; they are not changed in their essentials. The second meaning belongs to his whole life, and especially to his whole school-life. To read a dialogue so that the listener forgets that he is not really hearing the parties who are represented; an earnest conversation, so that none of its earnestness is lost; a story or description, so that it seems to be told rather than read, - gives oral reading its true place, and one who can do this has "learned to read" in the second and larger sense. Importance of Vocal Drill. - To do this, the voice needs training in order to respond to the demands made upon it; and one who wishes to be a good reader or speaker should practice daily the drill given in this series of Readers on enunciation, tone, breathing, and expression, until the voice becomes as automatic in speaking as the feet in walking, and responds to the will without a conscious effort. If the work in the previous books of this series has been fairly well done, the pupils have gained the ability to think about what they read, and their tastes have kept even step with their improvement in reading, so that now they are able to appreciate lessons that may seem hard to others, and to enjoy the vigorous mind-exercise that the study of good authors gives to a bright and thoughtful pupil.
