He must develop a mental, social, and physical adjustment to school line, Learning to read does not only consist of mastering a.minimum of an approximate hoo word reading vocabulary, but also includes experience with word structure, exercises with initial and final word-sounds, blending sounds as a basis for phonetic insight rhyming words, enunciation, and articulation. It includes comprehension, meaning of words, and a transfer of learning to other situationsa Such techniques as turning pages, hom to hold a book, and surveying the page from left to right and from top to bottom are a part of reading, All 6 year old children are not physically, mentally, socially, and emotionally mature enough to be ready to read when they start school. Just as children are ready to walk and talk at different ages so they are ready to read at different ages, First grade language work is informal and is correlated with reading. It includes enrichment of background experiences, story telling, answering questions in sentences, interest in stories, ability to think clearly, and to memorize. The objective in writing is to learn to write, in manuscript form, all the small and capital letters, and nov to out then together into vords and simple sentences with correct spacing and height, Hchild should be able to count and write the numbers to 100 by the end of one year of schoolp He should have a good number concept and numbers should be meaningful to him. The second grade work is a continuation of the work of the first grade. The reading and speaking vocabulary is increased. Word sounds and phonics play a more important part in attacking new words. Spelling and formal English are introduced. All the 100 addition and subtraction combinations are studied. The transition from manuscript to script writing takes place, The foundation for all future work is laid in the primary graces so if the child is to be successful in the grades to come he must have a mastery of all the primary oh ectives.
