Teaching and Learning: The Journal of Natural Inquiry & Reflective Practice
People operate under some significant misconceptions in contemporary America. Parents will initiate great changes when they finally realize that many people, especially professional educators, differ significantly in their definition of morality. These parents would be shocked into action if they only knew the perversity which operates in our schools under the name of humanistic morality. Once they know they will react no differently than I have (Alice Moore, leader of the Kanawha County West Virginia Textbook Controversy).

Reading And Literacy--Alive And Well, John Micklos Jr
Reading And Literacy--Alive And Well, John Micklos Jr
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Reading and English teachers often feel as though they are fighting a losing battle. After all, many critics claim that reading is a dying art in the United States. These critics believe that television has replaced reading as a leisure activity and contributed to a general decline in the standard of literacy. There is good news, however, for those who believe in the importance of reading and books. Reading is not dead, and many research findings suggest that the level of literacy and the amount of interest in reading may be higher than ever.
Graphing As A Reading Skill, Don Deresz, Grover C. Mattewson
Graphing As A Reading Skill, Don Deresz, Grover C. Mattewson
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
The science curriculum contains built-in opportunities for the teaching of reading skills. Using graphs is a skill that is necessary for children to gain information from their reading (Silvarcli and Wheelock, 1980). Science instruction can guide children to comprehend information from their reading by teaching them to read and infer from graphs. Lucas and Burlando (1975) stated that scientific experiences "are designed so that the student will be asked to define problems, locate information, organize data into graphic form, evaluate findings and draw conclusions.

Developing Story-Telling Skills With Language-Experience Stories, Charles L. Smith

Although the use of the student's oral language in language-experience stories is comparatively easy and straightforward, to extend and increase the understanding in the use of language necessitates some type of construct for the teacher. The framework which follows is presented for use with language-experience stories, to foster the expressive language abilities of students. The examples are taken from actual experience stories dictated by children who have been motivated with pictures.

What role should reading specialists play? Many will continue to provide traditional remedial services, but there are indications that the consultant and staff development role is beginning to get more attention than it has in the past. This is good news for those reading specialists who have sought to work with teachers and administrators for more than a decade. It may even be better news for children and teachers because reading specialists are demonstrating that not only can they teach students with reading problems, they can also consult with teachers and administrators to improve reading instruction for all students.

Parents As Partners In Reading Through The Newspapers, Nicholas P. Criscuolo
Parents As Partners In Reading Through The Newspapers, Nicholas P. Criscuolo
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Parents can capitalize on the many articles, columns, features and other items contained in the pages of the daily paper. What is needed, to make the newspaper a regular source of reading lessons that are both enlightening and entertaining, is a careful preview of the available items, with a thought for their possible uses. To become skilled at the previewing strategy, a parent might look at the kinds of ideas described in courses-for-parents which discuss lessons and learning in children's books. Some school personnel, working with librarians, have developed courses for parents, to acquaint them with the best in children's …
An Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of Selected Readability Formulas Applied To Secondary Texts, Donna Keenan
An Evaluation Of The Effectiveness Of Selected Readability Formulas Applied To Secondary Texts, Donna Keenan
Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts
Everyday, the reality of this statement becomes painfully obvious to many high school students across the nation. The creative ideas implemented in elementary school are not often to be found on the secondary level. Instead, we find subject area teachers who are confident of their ability to uphold the "high standards" in teaching the content of their particular disciplines. Unfortunately, these high standards frequently involve using material which is written on a high twelfth grade or college readability level. With national attention focused on students' declining scores in reading, as well as increased apprehension concerning the number of illiterate high …
