Programmed Word Attack for Teachers

Programmed word attack for teachers fourth edition is a book on word analysis. This edition contains two sections that were not included in previous editions. One new section explains how to use a dictionary effectyively and will be useful to any person who wishes to teach reading to elementary school children. The other new section contains information about higher order spelling patterns and provides examples to illustrate how these patterns can be applied.

Emphasizing the relationship between word analysis strategies and the language processing nature of reading, this practical, self-study guide helps prepare future teachers for their certification and/or competency tests by providing a strong foundation in basic phonics. With its combination of careful programming, numerous examples and exercises, and many self-checking opportunities, it is a true 'time-saver' - enabling students to master the concepts and terminology of word analysis with minimal instructor involvement.
