DESCRIPTORS *Educational History; *Educational Practices; Futures (of Society); Instructional Materials; *Reading Instruction; *Reading Processes; *Reading Research; Reading Skills; Teaching Methods IDENTIFIERS *Reading Theories ABSTRACT This paper discusses reading instruction in the 20th century. The paper begins with a tour of the historical pathways that have led people, at the century's end, to the "rocky and highly contested terrain educators currently occupy in reading pedagogy." After the author/educator unfolds his version of a map of that terrain in the paper, he speculates about pedagogical journeys that lie ahead in a new century and a new millennium. Although the focus is reading pedagogy, the paper seeks to connect the pedagogy to the broader scholarly ideas of each period. According to the paper, developments in reading pedagogy over the last century suggest that it is most useful to divide the century into thirds, roughly 1900-1935, 1935- 1970, and 1970-2000. The paper states that, as a guide in constructing a map of past and present, a legend is needed, a common set of criteria for examining ideas and practices in each period--several candidates suggest themselves, such as the dominant materials used by teachers in each period and the dominant pedagogical practices.

DESCRIPTORS Child Language; Literatureyeviews; Oral Language; Primary Education; *Reading Research; *Structural Analysis (Linguistics); Textbook Content; *Vocabulary; *Vocabulary Development; *Word Frequency; *Word Lists ABSTRACT To offer a historical perspective on vocabulary studies, this paper presents summaries, reviews, and critiques of vocabulary studies in chronological order of publication. The only variance from this format bre published rebuttals and/or critiques, which are presented immediately following the original studies. The paper is divided into two parts. Part one presents the "Early Studies: Pre-1950" and contains the studies thatwere published before 1950. Part two presents "More Recent Studies: Post-1950" and contains the studies published since 1950. No attempt is made to classify the studies except in historical sequence. Basically the studies are concerned with the reading, writing, and spoken vocabulary of yourTh children, in grades one, two, and three. Also, "original"'and primary sources are used, not secondary. Thepaper concludes With a summation of the studies, noting that while.the earlier studies were mainly concerned with an analysis of vocabulary through frequency word counts and comparison of previously published lists, the last three decades from the 1950s to the present give evidence of a shift in emphasis to a linguistic analysis of the language. An extensive bibliogtaphy is included.

  • Why Johnny Can't Read ? and What You Can Do About
    Rudolf Flesch, Why Johnny Can’t Read ? And What You Can Do About It (1955) Chapter I A LETTER TO JOHNNY'S MOTHER Dear Mary: I have decided to start this book with a letter to you. You know that the idea came to me when I offered to help John, with his reading. It's really his book — or yours. So the only proper way to start it is with the words “Dear Mary.” You remember when I began to work with Johnny half a year ago. That was when he was twelve and they put him back into sixth grade because he was unable to read and couldn't possibly keep up with the work in junior high. So I told you that I knew of a way to teach reading that was altogether different from what they do in schools or in remedial reading courses or anywhere else. Well, you trusted me, and you know what has happened since. Today Johnny can read — not perfectly, to be sure, but anyone can see that in a few more months he will have caught up with other boys of his age. And he is happy again: You and I and everyone else can see that he is a changed person. I think Johnny will go to college. He has a very good mind, as you know, and I don't see why he shouldn't become a doctor or a lawyer or an engineer. There is a lot in Johnny that has never come to the surface because of this reading trouble.

  • Reviews, Historical Background, and Linguistic Analysis of the Phonovisual Phonics Charts
    Reviews, Historical Background, and Linguistic Analysis of the Phonovisual Phonics Charts Prepared by Donald L. Potter Originally Published on August 7, 2006 Last Revision February 16, 2019 www.donpotter.net Reviews, Historical Background, and Linguistic Analysis of the Phonovisual Phonics Charts by Donald L. Potter August 7, 2006 This brief research paper was originally prompted by success I experienced in 2006 teaching phonics with the two Phonovisual Phonics Charts. My college training in structural linguistics and my years of experience teaching beginning reading with various phonics methods alerted me to the fact that the Phonovisual Method is a truly Universal Method for teaching the phoneme-to-grapheme (sound-to-symbol) relationships of written English to beginning reading students. While designed to teach basic phonics to young students learning to read with the then popular (1942) sight-word methods, the method has proven highly effective for use alongside any phonics method a teacher may be using. I have used the program continuously from 2006 to 2018 as of this revision. I can still recommend it as the best program for teaching the sound-to-symbol associations. CONTENTS Page 1. Reviews of Phonovisual Method by Charles Walcutt 2 and Robert C. Aukerman. 2. Sample Charts: Black and white 9 3. A presentation of the linguistic organization of the 11 Phonovisual Charts.

  • Whole Language Goes Up, Reading Standards Go Down. Fact Or Fiction?
    Whole Language goes up, reading standards go down. Fact or fiction? Tom Nicholson, PhD Associate Professor School of Education University of Auckland New Zealand Phone/Voicemail: 64-9-373.7599 Ext 7372 Fax: 64-9-373-7455 email: [email protected] Whole Language goes up, reading standards go down. Fact or fiction? The rise and rise of whole language In The Netherlands, in a village called Naarden just outside Amsterdam, is a memorial to Jan Amos Comenius. As our tour group stood beside the statue of Comenius, the guide said that one of the great contributions of Comenius was to publish a book for children, which had ‘designs’ (line illustrations). Within the illustrations, key objects were given numbers, to correspond with words in the written text, which were also numbered. Thus, children could relate the meanings of the printed words to objects that were in the sketches, and thus read more easily, since they could use picture clues to help work out the written words. Yetta Goodman (1989) has argued that ‘Visible World’ (Comenius, 1658/1967), was the first picture book written for children, and a philosophical precursor to whole language. Where did the term ‘whole language’ come from? It seems that Comenius was the first to use the term. But what happened after that? In the 1960s, when the First Grade Studies Project (Bond & Dykstra, 1967) was carried out, many different methods of teaching reading were compared, but there was no mention of whole language. Yetta Goodman (1989) reports that the term ‘whole language’ did not occur in recent times until it was used in an article by Harste and Burke (1977).
