Book excerpt: Excerpt from Learning to Read: A Manual for Teachers Using the Aldine Readers The term "method"is used in this Manual for want of a better one. Here, however, it has not the quite usual meaning of an elaborately wrought-out system of formal devices. It refers rather to the sum of principles and processes whose application has been found most effective in accomplishing a definite result - teaching children to read independently. The method described is not the outgrowth of untried theories of teaching reading. It is rather the description of certain processes for accomplishing certain results, processes founded on sound psychological principles, wrought out and perfected in thousands of schoolrooms during the last fifteen years. These processes have not been tested simply in a few exercises, with a few pupils; hundreds of thousands have been taught solely in accordance with the principles and plans set forth in this Manual. There is not a plan nor a device herein described, from the least to the most important, whose practicality and worth has not been demonstrated. The size of this Manual is not due to any difficulty in the method. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
