Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Language Readers: Fourth Reader The lessons in this fifth book of the Language Readers have been written or selected to meet the requirements of fourth-year pupils. At this period of school life it is possible to lay the foundations of a literary sense if the reading lessons exhibit interesting diversity of content, and the language is adapted to the understanding of the child. In this reader frequent use has been made of the legends and folk stories of different nations, because the human interest in such stories appeals strongly to the child's mind. Fairy stories from Hans Christian Andersen and other sources have also been included, for this is the age when the child's enjoyment of the fairy tale has reached its zenith. Much has been accomplished in the education of the young when a desire to read has been aroused But the reading must be select in content as well as literary in form; hence stories of patriotism and lessons with a direct ethical purpose have been included in this book. Such reading tends directly to the development of character, and the ethical purpose in the lesson is best taught through the interest in the story. The value of the earliest work in literature is measured by the interest aroused and the profit the child obtains from his reading. This marks the beginning of a literary taste. Its development is a matter of slow growth. It cannot be forced. It must follow the same general principle - from the simple to the more difficult - that underlies the teaching of other subjects.

This purpose has been more fully stated in the prefaces to the advanced numbers. The present volume contains but little besides the reading matter itself. It seems best at this stage of the work not\to complicate the page by the introduction of matter auxiliary to the study. Such assistance should be, and usually is, given by the teacher. It may, therefore, not be amiss to state several objects which the teacher should have in mind in this second year of the work in language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A City Reader for the Fourth Year This book is the outgrowth of the author's experience, as teacher and supervisor, with thousands of children in several public schools of New York City. Like many other teachers, she has found that the majority of children do not care for classical literature because they do not understand it. The classical literature of England and America does not represent modern industrial conditions. Its traditions are peculiarly those of the Anglo-Saxon race. The genius of authors leads them to treat of subjects beyond the comprehension of the average child, and the beauties of their style involve forms of language that are too difficult for most children. This book has been prepared with the above conditions in mind. The chief aims that have governed the selection of material are: (1) That the general limits of the content be determined by the city child's experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fourth Reader This fourth reader is designed to meet the children on their own level and to lead them by easy stages to a higher plane. They are now at an age when their ability to understand and appreciate is far in advance of their reading ability. They enjoy great stories and appreciate fine sentiment if the language does not Offer too many difficulties. In the preparation of this Reader, therefore, special attention has been given to keeping the vocabulary within range of the pupil's ability. The earlier part of the book contains selections that are simple in vocabulary and sentence structure, and the later lessons provide for a steady growth, without introducing tedious difficulties. Ideas and ideals, however, are more important than forms and vocabularies. Already the children have begun to enjoy some of the masterpieces of literature. It frequently happens that they can appreciate part of a long story before they can read it in the complete form. It is also true that the reading of a simplified version of a classic is often the best introduction to the reading of the classic itself. In the selections that are here abridged from longer works, the spirit and the language of the author have been preserved. Moreover, these selections are always com plete units and are of sufficient length to aid in establishing habits of sustained attention and interest.

The Language Readers make the relationship close and vital, without killing the pupil's enjoyment of literature or rendering the work in expression pedantic.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Year Language Reader The Language Readers are based upon the general theory that the work in reading and the work in language should be brought into close relationship. Arguments for this theory are presented in the prefaces to the higher books of the series. The main purpose of the reading work of the first two years must be to learn to read. By the general agreement of experience, nothing so hastens a child's progress as the desire to read and actual practice in reading. His desire to read is, in the first place, aroused by his teacher, and fostered by the pleasure he takes in the work. Not only the skill of the teacher, therefore, but the nature of the reading matter also, enters into the problem. For this reason, the editors and publishers have striven to make these books attractive to children in appearance and substance. There is no absolutely best way of beginning the work. One of the best methods is to engage the pupils in conversation regarding objects which appear early in the book, and then show them that the things which they have said can be said in another way than by speaking, viz. by writing them on the blackboard in script or in print, or in both.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jones Fourth Reader This book is intended to cover the work in reading for the fourth and fifth school years. Pupils who enter the fourth school year are supposed to have mastered to at least a fair degree the mechanics of learning to read. They may therefore begin to appreciate the better class of literature, in which ideas are put forth in artistic form. The transition to such literature must needs be made slowly and carefully, inasmuch as the new matter brings with it a somewhat new vocabulary and a more complicated construction of sentence. The selections in the first part of this reader have been chosen with especial reference to bridging over for the child the natural chasm between the forms of thought and language of childhood and those appropriate to youth. The selections lead to the best in literature that is available for young readers. Attention is called particularly to the fact that many of the selections used are organic parts of larger works, to which the notice and interest of pupils will naturally be directed through the reading of these selected parts. Care has been taken that the part chosen in each case shall constitute an artistic literary whole, while sustaining its organic relations to the work from which it is taken. Great care has also been given to the kind and range of ideas embodied. The book has a distinctly moral bearing, assisting the young to form right ideas of life and conduct. Every department of laudable human aspiration and endeavor is rep resented in some appropriate concrete form, and every noble instinct is reenforced by its appropriate stimulus.

Such arrangement will train pupils to use the reference lists as they use their dictionaries. These accounts should be utilized consistently. In many instances they present something of the romance of the author's life. The story of the struggles, ambitions, and successes of a writer often awakens in the pupil an interest which cannot fail to lead to the reading of other books by the same author. Too much stress cannot be laid on this feature of the work in reading. It is one of the most important functions of the teacher in the higher grades of the elementary school.

Book excerpt: Israel Bond may seem like a simple-if-sexy salesman for Mother Margolies' Old World Chicken Soup, but when the Holy Land needs his skills - his quickness with a pun, his second-to-none semitic seduction techniques, and (if absolutely necessary) his abilities at actual espionage - then the man known by the code name Oy-Oy-7 (licensed not only to kill, but to say prayers over the corpse) is there to do what needs be done. In a land surrounded by its enemies, Oy-Oy-7 is called on to guard the nation's great benefactor, the generous but odd Lazarus Loxfinger. Is there more to Loxfinger than meets the eye? Bond aims to find out, even if doing so requires sleeping with dozens of exotic beauties! In the mid-1960s, when Playboy was serializing the adventures of the world's most famous superspy, they interspersed them with the rollicking adventures of Israel's most hilarious weapon, Israel Bond. After the book editions of what the Chicago Tribune called "probably the funniest secret agent parodies ever written" had sold over a million copies, they were allowed to fall out of print. Decades later, all four books in the Israel Bond series are now back in new editions!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Graded Poetry Readers: Fourth Year Poetry is the chosen language of childhood and youth. The baby repeats words again and again for the mere joy of their sound: the melody of nursery rhymes gives a delight Which is quite independent of the meaning of the words. Not until youth ap proaches maturity is there an equal pleasure in the rounded periods of elegant prose. It is in childhood therefore that the young mind should be stored with poems Whose rhythm Will be a present delight and Whose beautiful thoughts will not lose their charm in later years. The selections for the lowest grades are addressed primarily to the feeling for verbal beauty, the recog nition of Which in the mind of the child is funda mental to the plan of this work. The editors have felt that the inclusion of critical notes in these little books intended for elementary school children would be not only superﬂuous, but, in the degree in Which critical comment drew the child's attention from the text, subversive of the desired result. N or are there any notes on methods. The best way to teach chil dren to love a poem is to read it inspiringly to them. The French say The ear is the pathway to the heart. A poem should be so read that it Will sing itself in the hearts of the listening children. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fourth Reader: For the Use of Schools As it respects the general plan of these works, the author lays little claim to originality. The idea of prefacing the lessons by a series of Rule, ado ted in the Third Reader, and in this also, was introduced by Murray, ong since, and has been acted Upon by others. The application of these rules, as practised in the last two volumes of this series, is believed to be peculiar, and it is hoped may be useful. The following of the reading lessons with spelling lessons derived from the reading matter, has been long practised and is here adopted. The pointing out of inaccurate renunciation, and the questions for examina tion, as to the sense an meaning of the lessons, are common and obvious means of instruction. The Etymological Exercises in this volume are a new application of what has been before the public for several years. The plan of requiring pupils to study reading lessons, and one which is deemed very important, appears to have been in successful practice in Europe for a considerable period. The objects of this have been stated to be, to render the acquiring of the art of Reading more easy and agreeable to the pupil to make the particular knowledge contained in the lessons available to him and, by a careful analysis of each sentence, to give him a thorough acquaintance with our language. These objects are too important to be overlooked, and the author has sought to ensure their attainment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Language Readers Primer The child comes to school at the age of six or seven with a speaking vocabulary of several hundred words, say from five hundred to seven hundred words. This number will vary according to his environment and home inﬂuences. In teaching reading to these first year pupils, the aim should be to teach the child to recognize the symbols for the ideas which he already possesses. In other words, the aim is not to enlarge the child's speaking vocabulary but rather to convert it into a reading vocabulary. The child must learn to associate form and sound; the printed symbol must suggest an idea. Furthermore the child must learn to translate these symbols into oral language expressively rendered. If the class be one composed largely of children who speak little or no English, the problem is more complex. The teacher must build up an English vocabulary for the most commonplace actions and ideas, and, at the same time, must associate the spoken words which the pupils are learning day by day with the printed or written symbols. That is, the teacher must teach English speech as well as reading. In this Primer no particular method has been fol lowed absolutely. The aim has been to use the best features of the word, the look and say, the sen tence, the phonic, and the Gouin methods. Nouns, verbs, and adjectives in common use form the basis of the child's reading vocabulary. These should be taught as sight words. As an introduction to the work in reading, such commands as stand, face, etc., which are at first given orally by the teacher, may be written on the board and the children directed to obey them. The first sentences in this Primer direct the performance of certain actions, one purpose being to secure silent reading before oral reading is attempted.
