Book Description
Excerpt from Word Lessons: A Complete Speller, Adapted for Use in the Higher Primary, Intermediate, and Grammar Grades It is hoped that the character of the illustrative phrases and sen tenoes in this book will aid the teacher in resisting the tendency of pupils to put meaningless, trashy stuff into their exercises. Such ex amples as the following are too generally encouraged in the text-books: The bad boy hit the good girl in the eye; Pour water on the fire, that Albert may not see to pore over that foolish picture illustrating the pores of the skin; The bear tore his bare leg in such a manner that I could not bear to look at it. Pupils should be required to keep a list of the words which they mis spell, and to rewrite them frequently, in sentences and separately. Written and oral spelling should be combined. The best results are obtained by addressing both eye and ear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Graded Speller: Arranged in Six Steps The pupil should first get the idea which the word represents, then associate the idea with the word, and lastly, write the word. This requires the most careful and critical examination of the spelling lesson on the part-oi the teacher, without which, it is not possible to attain the highest success in teaching children to spell. I have not attempted to indicate the number of words that shall be taken up at a lesson. No one can know this so well as the teacher.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Teaching of Spelling The purpose of this book is to bring together from all sources the more reliable and pertinent facts in the teaching of spelling, and to present them in their relation to the practical problems which the teacher has to face every day in the classroom. The book is an outgrowth of a thesis on "The Experimental Studies of Spelling," which embodied an exhaustive study of some ninety investigations. In the preparation of the book, this material was supplemented by such information as could be gathered from the general literature of the subject, including books and articles on methods of teaching and on the psychology of learning, and the better spelling texts of the day. A third source of material was the author's three years' experience as an elementary school principal and supervisor in testing, evaluating, and applying in actual classroom work the conclusions of the preceding studies. The author gratefully acknowledges his indebtedness to the many investigators and teachers whose fruitful labors have made this book possible.

Book Description
Excerpt from Graded Lessons in Spelling Amount and Nature of Subject M (met - This speller pro vides work for seven grades. There are one hundred and sixty lessons for each grade, the number of words per lesson increasing from four in the second year grade to twelve and sixteen in the eighth year grade. Not counting the words re peated for purposes of review, this speller contains about eight thousand words, the number per grade increasing from five hundred and sixty in the second year grade to eighteen hun dred in the eighth year grade. In the second, third, fourth and fifth year grades each word is used in a sentence. This is done for the purpose of illustrating the use and meaning of the word, giving the teacher material for dictation, and, incidentally, giv ing the pupil valuable information, as the sentences, para graphs and stanzas used for illustrations were selected or pre pared with regard to interest, information and language, many of the selections being classic. In the sixth, seventh and eighth year grades fewer of the words are used in sentences, it being deemed unnecessary to provide so much illustrative material for these Older pupils. Word building is introduced into the fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth year grades, there be ing ten lessons on prefixes and suffixes in the fifth year grade, and twenty on roots in each of the three more advanced grades. This work is placed at regular intervals throughout, and it is deemed an ample amount of word analysis for the grammar grades.

Book Description
Excerpt from Graded Lessons in Spelling: Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth Year Grades These three factors have given rise to several methods for teaching spelling, the two more important being the oral method and the written method. As stated above, the oral method was employed some twenty-five years ago almost ex elusively, but has since been displaced by the written method. The oral method always emphasizes the memory factor and usually the factor of word pronunciation, the pupil being drilled in pronouncing words as well as in spelling them orally. The written method emphasizes the factor of word image, and incidentally the factor of memory, the word image being stamped on the memory through the sense of sight. The written method does not provide for oral spelling nor for word pronunciation on the part of the pupil. It is no doubt true that the oral method, by actual results secured, has proven itself superior; to the written method. Daily drill in oral spelling, and the spelling down and go ing ahead practice, contribute strongly to the making of good spellers. The drill in pronunciation is also a strong factor in favor of oral spelling, and this is admitted even by those who are inclined to emphasize unduly the importance of the fact t'hat letters have not a constant sound value in the syllable. The strongest point in favor of the written method is the fact that it stamps the word image, on the memory through the sense of sight - the most keenly trained and highly developed of the senses. That this is most important is indicated by the fact that many persons in deciding how to spell a word will write it to see if it looks right, or, in other words, to recall its picture or image. But while the word - image factor is very important in spelling, just how important it is cannot be determined. Nor is it of vital importance to determine the rela tive value in learning to spell, of memory, of word pronuncia tion, and of word image. All of these facts are of prime im portance, and the great mistake made has been not in a failure to determine their relative importance, but in using a method that emphasizes one to the detriment of the others, the result of the exclusive use of either the oral or the written method. These two methods should be combined in the teaching of spell ing to the end that the best results of each shall be secured. This can easily be done. For a more detailed discussion of these points, and a discussion of the value of word work in connection with spelling, see Explanatory and Suggestive a few pages further on.

Appleton's Standard Speller (Classic Reprint)

Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Excerpt from Appleton's Standard Speller There are two steps before writing and composition; namely, pronunciation and spelling. The Speller works from the first step toward the third. Therefore, Phonic Drill begins in the First Year and is carried through the Fourth; and syllabication and accent begin in the Third and continue to the end of the book, being delayed so much only because the pupil should first recognize the written words as wholes. It is suggested that the teacher supplement the Phonic Drills by calling attention to some general rules of pronunciation; for example, to the short vowel before a doubled consonant, to the long vowel before a single consonant followed by e, and to the frequency of hard 9 and hard 0 before a and o and of soft g and soft 0 before 6 and i. In the step from pronunciation to spelling, Word Building is a help; and exercises in Word Building occur in the Second, Third, and Fourth Years. The sentences, introduced as much to practice readiness and ease in spelling as to illustrate the meanings of words, are not always limited to the word list immediately preceding, but often give opportunity for test and review. As helpful to the work in Dictation, the uses of the simpler marks of punctuation have been explained and illustrated. At the close of the work in Punctuation, there begins, in the Fifth Year, the systematic drill in Etymology, which is treated simply, with abundant explanation, illustration, and practice work. And as a last step toward that careful composition work for which the book is preparing is a list of Synonyms, defined. In the section for Advanced Grades, the apportionment of the material in lessons has been left to the teacher, who can best suit the work to the time and deficiencies of the particular class.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Primary School Spelling-Book: Designed for Primary and Intermediate Schools Experience has convinced the author that the old method of requiring children to study words in columns, arranged according to their accent and number of syllables, and to spell them orally, with out reducing the exercise to practice by writing the words, is a useless task, and will never accomplish its design. Children may be able to spell words correctly when pronounced by the teacher; but, without frequent practice in writing, they will mis spell them in composition. The recent reports of school committees, upon this subject, bear testimony to the truth of this conclusion.
