Life beyond the Basal.

Grey, Jeanne; Carbone, Carole

Illinois Schools Journal, v67 n1 p49-55 1987

Reading is a tool for learning. The goal for the teaching of reading must be to produce lovers of reading. A holistic approach should replace exclusive dependence on basal readers. Effective methods are the following: (1) language experience approach; (2) word banks; (3) pattern books; (4) sustained silent reading; and (5) directed reading-teaching activity. (VM)
