Excerpt from Our Country's Readers, Vol. 1
The lessons are, as nearly as could be given, actual lessons used in the school-room.
An effort has been made to give lessons that are full of life and of interest to children, and at the same time to use all words introduced often enough to fully establish them in the child's Visual and written vocabularies.
It is hoped that the lessons will be suggestive of the possibilities of arousing the mental activities of the child through those things which delight his heart. The reading lessons are drawn largely from directed play, by which means the question of ex pression in reading is solved.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book, originally published in 1912, is an early reader designed to teach children to read sentences, not just single words, as previous books did. The author began writing it after years of teaching children and realizing the need for more engaging reading materials. She believed in presenting children with content they could understand and relate to, so she wrote lessons that drew heavily from childhood experiences, such as directed play and special days like holidays. This reader, part of a series by the author, is specifically intended to provide lessons for the first six weeks of school and provides suggestions for activities to help expand childrenās vocabulary and introduce them to sounds associated with various letter combinations. This reader contains a number of poems, songs, and stories that will delight young readers as they learn to associate sounds with words. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780259947899_0
