Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rational Method in Reading: Primer
The Rational Method in Reading was the outgrowth of the author's study, observation, and experimentation in the public schools of Brooklyn, of which he was for many years Superintendent. The method in brief is a wise combination of the word (or sentence) method and the phonetic method. The phonic arrangement is simple, well graded, and comprehensive. By its use the child may within a year and a half from his entrance into school come into possession of a complete key to Reading. The success of this method has been phenomenal. So great has been the demand for the books that again and again the book plates have been worn out and have been replaced by new castings.
