Book excerpt: Excerpt from The New Franklin Primer and First Reader This Primer recognizes the Word and Sentence Method in connection with Script, as a desirable way of giving children their first lessons in reading and writing. Some of the important features of the book may be briefly indicated. 1. Easy and careful gradation is a chief characteristic; short and easy steps and no long or hard ones. 2. Only a very few new words, - usually, from four to eight, are introduced in any lesson. In some of the later lessons this number is slightly exceeded. 3. The new words are placed at the head of the lesson in which they occur. As soon as these are learned so as to be known at sight, the child is ready to get the thought when they are joined with other words already mastered, and to read the sentences aloud intelligently. 4. Much thought has been given to the selection of words which are most profitable for beginners to acquire as a vocabulary. Such have been chosen as are in frequent use in ordinary speech and writing. The child hears others use them everyday, and uses them.himself, and therefore knows their meaning. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
