Januar 2007 "Most of us today experienced kindergarten as a loose assortment of playful activities - a kind of preparatory ground for school proper - but in its original incarnation kindergarten was a highly formalized system that drew its inspiration from the science of crystallography." [create Inventing Kindergarten] [create Friedrich Fröbel] Found in the Proceedings of the Athanasius Kircher Society, a literally wonder-ful wunderkammer. If your work week starts today, you might consider avoiding this publication ... especially as long as the 2006 round-up is on the front page."A typical seventh grader knows the meaning of [10] to 15 words today that she didn't know yesterday. She must have acquired almost all of them as a result of reading, because (a) the great majority of English words are used only in print, (b) she already knew well almost all the words she would have encountered in speech, and (c) she learned less than one word by direct instruction. Studies of children reading grade-school text find that about one word in every 20 paragraphs goes from wrong to right on a vocabulary test. The typical seventh grader would have read less than 50 paragraphs since yesterday, thus should have learned less than three new words, not 10 to 15. Apparently, she mastered the meanings of many words that she did not encounter." no comments Please log in (you may want to register first) to post comments! |
