Oral Reading In The Intermediate Grades, Mildred Gudex

Bachelors’ Theses

By silent reading we mean the single process of getting the thought from the printed page; by oral reading we mean the getting and the giving of the thought from the printed page. Oral reading is, accordingly, a much more complex process than silent reading. Silent reading involves the recognition of the symbol - that is, the word - and the as sociation of the word with the idea or getting the thought. Oral reading involves the recognition of the symbol; the as sociation of the word with the idea - getting the thought; and the vocal utterance of the …

The Teaching Of Oral Language In Grades I To Viii, Elizabeth M. Weisend

Bachelors’ Theses

The work of promoting good speaking and of obtaining accuracy in the expression of thought is one of the most important aims to be accomplished in teaching. The ability of the child to use accurately his mother-tongue in speaking is of great social and cultural value. It helps him to adapt himself socially to his environment and to think and express himself clearly. It gives him confidence in himself and thereby, ease in appearing before an audience, through his fluency in conversation gained by an ever-increasing vocabulary and a knowledge and use of correct English.

The New School In The Upper Grades, Selma F. Tonn

Bachelors’ Theses

The chief equipment a good teacher needs is a sympathetic understanding of child nature and child interests, and common sense or tact in the choice and use of methods of teaching suited to them. Anyone who has often seen the happy eager faces of all the children in a class of thirty-five or more can speak with authority.

Radio In The Elementary School, Lenore Mary Stagg

Bachelors’ Theses

Radio is a magic instrument of unity and power destined to link nations, to enlarge knowledge, to remove misunderstandings, and to promote truth. But it will not achieve these things unless we keep a more watchful eye on those who use it and those who control it. We should arouse in all people a greater sense of their responsibility for the proper use of this modern miracle. One of the distinguishing features of American democracy is the excellence of its common school system. Another name for common school is elementary school. Children who are engaged in the Kindergarten and the …

The Period Of Rapid Progress In Fundamental Reading Attitudes, Habits, And Skills: Second Year, Arabelle T. Weich

Bachelors’ Theses

"The justification of any subject in the curriculum is that it enables pupils to engage effectively in desirable life activities."

If the training accomplishes this and so makes better citizens, then its inclusion is justified. Instruction in reading should take into account the reading experiences of children and adults both in school and social life. We must therefore first consider the kind of reading adults do. That will be the kind children will have to learn to do better. A great change has occurred in the educational field in the last years. The course of study has been greatly enriched. …

The Teaching Of Language In The Elementary School, Estelle Sayle

Bachelors’ Theses

Language is the one universal means of expressing human thought and reeling, and the strongest bond of human fellowship. It is man's most effective agent in business, his neediest resources for pleasure, his most sympathetic medium of comfort and consolation, his most stimulating spur of aspiration and ambition and his best aid to the higher achievement of intellect.

Reading Skills Necessary For Effective Work In The Intermediate Grades, Mildred Geiger

Bachelors’ Theses

Although children entering the fourth grade are often expected to have mastered all reading difficulties, and to possess good study habits, this is frequently not the case. Continued oral reading has developed slow and relatively incompetent readers. The fourth grade teacher must, therefore, by means of diagnostic or informal tests determine to what extent her pupils are prepared for the work that is to be accomplished in the intermediate grades. It is the purpose of this thesis to show what fundamental reading alms and objectives are necessary for effective work in this period and how the writer has attempted to …
