• Excerpt from The Practical Speller for Higher Grades: Designed to Present as Nearly as Possible in the Natural Order of Acquisition the Words Required in the Work of the Grammar and High School, and to Lead the Pupil to a Clear Understanding of the Common Usage of Capital Letters and of Punctuation MarksThe experience of observant teachers and the experiments of scientific educators have conclusively demonstrated that the natural order of words in learning to spell is the order of the acquisition of words. It is valueless for a child to learn the succession of letters in a word, however easy it may be, before his mind has the power to grasp, in some degree at least, its significance. The grading of this book, therefore, is based wholly on the commonness of words. The natural growth of the pupil's knowledge and language has been the governing principle in selecting the words for, and determining the order of, the spelling exercises.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
