| Summary |
This classic guide is a total language arts approach that for over 40 years has helped millions of children learn to spell, write, and read. Using all their senses, children learn symbols that represent fundamental speech sounds and how these combine to form words. The title of the book, The Writing Road to Reading, means exactly that: As children hear, say, and then write high-frequency words in their notebook, reading begins naturally. For older students having difficulty, the Spalding Method dramatically improves classroom and test performances. RomaIda Spalding's intensive study of how children learn enabled her to develop a method of stunning efficiency, effective for classroom, home, special education, and ESL instruction. The Spalding Method is a total language arts approach that has been used by teachers and parents for nearly fifty years to teach millions of students to spell, write, and read. Now fully updated to reflect the latest research on how children learn language, this newest edition is easier to use than ever. The Spalding Method helps train the right and left sides of the brain as children see, hear, read, and write. It is cost-effective and efficient students use pencils, paper, and their minds. The results are stunning: Children learn to connect speech sounds to print and begin to write and read almost magically. Spalding students perform well in the classroom and on tests -- and most important, they love to read and write. |
