Items related to Reading without Nonsense
This text provides a humanistic antidote to the managed "systems" approach to reading instruction. Its theme is that reading must make sense to the learner and so must reading instruction. Revised and expanded, this edition has been restructured to provide separate (and updated) chapters on: phonics and meaningful reading; comprehension and learning; the act and range of reading; and teaching reading and "reading disabilities". The underlying learner-friendly, teacher-supportive approach that characterized the previous editions remains unchanged. Dr Smith notes that the research and debate of the past ten years, though often acrimonious, have done nothing to undermine this book's account of the basic nature of reading and of learning to read.
