The Comprehensive Method of Teaching Reading; Book One; First Five Months
About the Book
Two major alternative methods are used to teach reading. Traditionally, "Phonics" has been used, which emphasizes the alphabetic principle – that letters represent the sounds of speech, and that there are systematic and predictable relationships between written letters and spoken words. Students also learn how to segment and "chunk" letter sounds together in order to blend them to form words. The alternative "Whole language" method of teaching reading instead emphasizes literature and text comprehension. Students are taught to apply critical thinking strategies, and to use context to "guess" words that they do not recognize.
