June
Brown's Guide to 'Let's Read'
Revised Edition
June Brown Garner |
|
The
supplementary workbook to Leonard Bloomfield and Clarence L. Barnhart's
Let's Read: A Linguistic Approach,
June Brown's guide is part of the foundation to successful reading. Brown
emphasizes the parents' role in teaching a child to read, their ability
to work one-on-one with the child and to work beyond the five-day class
week.
In this second revised edition, Brown further develops
the concept of "total recall." "Total recall" means
that the student can recite the letters in alphabetical order, can identify
them when they are presented in random order, and can print any word when
it is pronounced and spelled.
Lesson plans are included for each section of
Let's Read, along
with hints on individual and group teaching, classroom organization, and
working with slow learners. |

"It
proved to be so easy for me to teach children by using this book [Let's
Read] that I decided . . . to work directly
with parents and their youngsters. This guidebook and Let's
Read are all you need to change your child's
reading failure into reading success . . . As one parent to another, I urge
you to start at once. The rapid progress your child can make will restore
lost confidence, improve self-esteem, and convince you that every normal
child—and many retarded ones— can learn to read."
—June Brown Garner. |
