In See Me Read: A Phonetic Approach for Teaching Beginning Readers of All Ages, Evelyn Palmer Mooney provides a time-tested method for teaching students of all ages to read, Pre-K through adult. Based on years of research and practice, the book contains a compilation of strategies for teaching reading along with word lists, short stories and jingles, and questions to enable beginning readers to practice the skills they are learning. Since the materials only contain the words that students are prepared to read as they advance through the levels, they can feel successful from the beginning and practice effective decoding skills.
Mooney moves from teaching consonants, to introducing vowels and helping students read beginning words, to providing strategies for introducing beginning and ending consonant blends. She then moves to teaching syllabication as a method for teaching spelling. In addition, she provides numerous word lists that will help both children and adults to spell words correctly and make sense of the English language. All learners will benefit from reading this book!
Whether you are a teacher who has taught students to read for years, a tutor who is teaching beginning readers or older students, a parent who is teaching your child to read, an adult who would like to become an even better reader and speller, or an adult or child who is learning English as a second language, this book is for you! You will discover little known facts about the English language that will enable you to be even more effective!
关于作者
Evelyn Palmer Mooney
After teaching young children for many years, Evelyn became inspired by the book, Why Johnny Can’t Read, and began her commitment to explore how one learns to read. While teaching in Germany and Japan in Department of Defense schools, she developed a technique and a plan for teaching reading, employing phonics as a basis. In Beirut, Lebanon, when she was teaching at the American School, Evelyn began to pilot her program in her classroom. Immediately, she noted remarkable success, with students beginning to read with confidence. While residing in Camp Le Jeune, NC, Evelyn took the bold step and had her material printed. Many teachers, tutors, and parents have used See Me Read and the companion Handbook for the Teaching of Reading since then with great success.
Evelyn finished her teaching career with the Dependents’ School System in Quantico, VA. During this time, she continued to use her method to teach with continuing success, and she inspired numerous teaching professionals to adopt the program as part of their teaching curriculum. Evelyn’s commitment to teach reading followed her into retirement where, as a volunteer, she taught adults to read using the See Me Read materials.
Evelyn’s method continues to be a valuable resource to anyone involved in teaching reading. She has finally decided to make this body of work available to a larger audience so that others may continue to teach students to be successful readers.
