Learning to read in the modern way is as simple and natural as learning to talk. The teacher bases her procedure on the principle that as a child learns to talk by talking, so he learns to read by reading. This principle being accepted, teaching to read resolves itself into providing the pupil with plenty of suitably graded reading material, and standing by to help him in his use of it.
The modern teacher begins by teaching the pupil to recognize in print, on the blackboard and card, eight or ten of the words used in the first few pages of the primer. She does this by associating the words with pictures; as, boy, girl, cat, dog, etc.; or with actions; as, run, play, jump. If the teacher prefer, She may begin by teaching the pupils to recognize a few Simple sentences as wholes. When the chil dren become familiar with these, they begin to distinguish the separate words of which they are composed, and quickly learn to recognize the more important and striking Single words wherever they see them. As soon as the pupil knows a few words, the teacher begins arranging them for him in simple sentences, and having him read, that is, look at the sentence and tell the story, or perform the action. After the pupil has done this, he should be allowed to read his sentence orally. To say the words aloud is not necessarily reading, however; to read means to get thought. In each lesson the teacher presents a little group of new sentences made from the old words and including one or two new Words. The new words Should be so chosen and so placed that the child may be able to guess the meaning Of the unknown word from the known context. The teacher trains him to do this; it is the first and fundamental device used by all readers young and old. Each day the pupil reviews the old words in new ar rangements; each day he adds one or two new words to his stock, learning to read by reading.
