What
is
"Old-Time Learning"?
Our
country was young and strong, and proper English
and grammar followed close behind phonics and
were mastered very early on.
The
Big Three, Reading, Writing and 'Rithmatic, formed
a learning foundation, stressed every day of every
year in every class throughout our nation.
Within these three came spelling (with all its
rules), sentence diagramming (for advanced writing
and comprehension mastery) and vocabulary, (for
optimum understanding and exchange of ideas).
With
this strong educational foundation, young children
were able to read novels effortlessly and were
accomplished story writers.
Subjects
such as math, history, and the sciences were learned
through reading. There was little class
instruction in comparison with that of our time.
With
English, grammar and word pronunciation skills,
students were able to understand the format of
the dictionary in all its depth. It was
through this vital study resource that a student
was able to tutor himself through areas of non-comprehension.
The
dictionary itself was a thoroughly taught subject,
and every student kept a good English dictionary
at his desk and wore it well.
Today's
highest honors students and some eighty percent
of adults fail a basic skills test based on fifth
grade academics of some sixty to eighty years
ago!
Superphonics
is an unknown treasure in this country, and truly,
you have come across a golden time machine. This
program is for parents who want nothing but the
best.
