Reading Attitudes Of Pre-Service Education Majors, M. Cecil Smith

The purpose of the current study was reading attitudes of undergraduates in training. We wondered if there were any relationship between such students' reading attitudes and the number of reading methods and other reading- and language-related courses they had taken.


"Sponge" Up That Time For Reading, Linda M. Clary Jul 1989

"Sponge" Up That Time For Reading, Linda M. Clary

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

In recent years, we have documented that discipline problems rise and learning decreases when students do not have something meaningful to do. Time that is engaged and productive, on the other hand, is usually called time on task (Brookover, Beamer, Efthim, Hathaway, Lezotte, Miller, Passalacqua, and Tornatzky, 1982). Sparks and Sparks (1983) have used the term "sponges" to mean those short activities that can keep the child meaningfully involved while a transition takes place or the rest of the group is ready to move on or the bell rings for recess. Kounin (cited in Brookover) has described the teacher's ability …


Effects Of Sustained Silent Reading On Attitudes Toward Reading, Edward J. Dwyer, Valda Reed Jul 1989

Effects Of Sustained Silent Reading On Attitudes Toward Reading, Edward J. Dwyer, Valda Reed

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Sustained silent reading (SSR) is a practice involving readers in the process of reading over a designated time period. The basic assumption, in a pedagogical sense, is that practice in reading contributes to reading achievement. Durkin (1983) suggested that the focus of any reading program should be the development of competence in independent silent reading. In the same light, Gambrell (1978) proposed that "cormnonsense notions about the reading process tell us that independent reading skills are enhanced through daily practice in silent reading ... " (p. 328). On the other hand, little empirical research appears to have been undertaken to …


Classroom Oral Reading And Its Needs Or Restraints, John H. Warren Jul 1989

Classroom Oral Reading And Its Needs Or Restraints, John H. Warren

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Few deny the beneficial effects of prose or poetry read aloud by a fluent and expressive reader; imparting reassurance, delivering entertainment, dispensing information or explanation, arousing curiosity, diffusing inspiration (Trelease, 1982). Apart from these advantages as we shall see, oral reading has the capability to engender literacy among individuals, more particularly our schoolchildren (Hoffman, 1982).

Making Story Time A Literacy Event For The Young Child, Beth Weir Jul 1989

Making Story Time A Literacy Event For The Young Child, Beth Weir

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

A literacy event is "any action or sequence, involving one or more persons in which the production and/or comprehension of print plays a role" (Anderson, Teale & Estrada, 1980). Story reading by a parent or teacher is perhaps the single most effective literacy event in a young child's experience with written language. Increasingly, reports suggest children's development of skills associated with ease of reading acquisition are enhanced with regular readings of storybooks both prior to and concomitant with formal instruction.

Language And Literacy: Mediating Reading Problems In A Communicative Context, Jim Waddell, Victoria J. Risko

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

The purpose of this paper is to describe how Trevor, a student who failed first grade because he didn't attain minimal reading skills according to school standards, learned to read during his second year in first grade. We believe that this description of Trevor's program will contribute to the understanding of how oral and written language impact on literacy attainment. We describe (a) Trevor's school history and problems that were noted in his folder prior to his second year in first grade, and (b) Trevor's success in learning to read and write in a program that encouraged his use of …

The Autobiography As Language Reflection, Kathy E. Danielson

Reading Horizons: A Journal of Literacy and Language Arts

Often, preservice teachers need to be reminded of the many influences on children's language. By reflecting on their own past language experiences, perhaps prospective teachers can better examine the important elements for language development.
