Excerpt from The Comprehensive Method, of Teaching Reading This book presents carefully graded lessons for the beginner in reading. The simple stories and rhymes are grouped in divisions that correspond with the divisions of the accompany ing manual. The reading divisions illustrate the phonic facts taught in the corresponding phonic divisions. This does not mean that the reading lessons included under any one division Should be completed as the phonic facts of that division are developed. The phonic drill Should be kept well in advance. The reading of a given division may lap over into the time spent in developing the phonic facts of the next division. Read in this way, each lesson will be a review of the phonic facts already taught. N 0 problem will appear in a read ing lesson that has not been solved in the previous phonic drill. Because the mechanical difficulties of the page are mastered outside of the book in the period devoted to drill, the child's mind, when reading, is free to attend to the thought expressed, and he reads With increasing ease and appreciation. He has at his command more than the vocabulary of this book. He has gained much power to solve the word problems that he meets in supplementary reading.
