The Riverside Readers
Author: James Hixon Van Sickle
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Children's poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
Reading is one of mankind's delights, and a main source of information. The approach to a reading lesson must focus the pupil's attention upon the central thought, to find in the thought an expression of her needs, desires, and interests. New ideas, or reorganization of familiar ideas, form the basis of informational reading, and these readers take advantage of the pupil's curiosity, and the impetus to share observations. Word work, in the form of vocabulary all must learn, augmented by a complete vocabulary appropriate to strong learners, are basic to these readers. Word recognition is enhanced by context relation, repetition, and phonic drills. Ideas for expressive reading and varied activities are also given.

The Lost Art of Reading
Author: David L. Ulin
Publisher: Sasquatch Books
ISBN: 157061721X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 89
Book Description
Reading is a revolutionary act, an act of engagement in a culture that wants us to disengage. In The Lost Art of Reading, David L. Ulin asks a number of timely questions - why is literature important? What does it offer, especially now? Blending commentary with memoir, Ulin addresses the importance of the simple act of reading in an increasingly digital culture. Reading a book, flipping through hard pages, or shuffling them on screen - it doesn't matter. The key is the act of reading, and it's seriousness and depth. Ulin emphasizes the importance of reflection and pause allowed by stopping to read a book, and the accompanying focus required to let the mind run free in a world that is not one's own. Are we willing to risk our collective interest in contemplation, nuanced thinking, and empathy? Far from preaching to the choir, The Lost Art of Reading is a call to arms, or rather, to pages.
