from grade one onward.

-
- ARITHMETIC: In teaching arithmetic, it
is important to convey the genius of the system itself Next to the alphabet,
it is the greatest mental tool ever devised by man. Therefore we should
approach the subject with the excitement and interest it deserves. Any
teacher who makes arithmetic dull does so because he does not understand
its beautiful simplicity, its logic, and its facility which permits us
to do so much with so little.

minutes: Reproduces the sounds of the letters, words, you are introducing
to the student You can listen in advance so you can be sure you are teaching
the sounds properly. While not everybody needs the audio tape, many will
find it invaluable. The teacher who is not quite sure of the sounds will
find it very helpful. Also, the person learning English reading as a second
language will find it a lifesaver. This is a postpaid price: $5.00

- Alpha-Phonics compared to
How To Tutor:
- How To Tutor (HTT) was written first, in 1972.
- Alpha-Phonics (Alpha) came in 1983.
- The reading portion of HTT and Alpha are virtually identical as to
content (Do not be concerned that the number of lessons is different;
HTT actually has 9 more phonics lessons because some lessons are broken
down into part "a," part "b," part "c," etc.).
-
- The MAIN difference between the reading portions
- of the two books is in format.
-
- Using HTT requires the teacher to copy material out of the book for
the student.
- Alpha allows the child to read his lessons directly from the book.
- Reason:
-
- HTT is a 5 X 8 size page. The instructions for parent and material
for the student are interspersed and in standard size type.
-
- Alpha is a large size page, 8 1/2 X 11. The instructions for parent
are separated and in the back half of the book in standard size book type.
- The material for the student is separated, in the front half of the
book, and are in extra large size type.
-
- There are some other slight differences between the reading portion
of HTT and Alpha, but they are not significant.
-
- Some people who want the most convenient way of teaching phonics reading,
and be able to teach arithmetic and cursive handwriting, buy both books.
