CHILDREN'S Reading Cards

The following cards have been prepared by Miss Katherine B. Hale, formerly Normal Director of Pacific Union College, and author of True Education Readers Nos. 1 and 2. They have been developed at the request of the Educational Department, and are based on the primary reading lessons contained in the author's Readers and explained in her Primary Reading Manual. They are therefore the result of ripe experience and wide counsel. Through their use the child entertains itself and at the same time becomes acquainted with words and names in both script and type. Please read the following description carefully:
No. 1. Dissected Alphabet Two cards, 7 x 11 inches, on which are printed, in large, bold type, from four to ten of each letter and punctuation mark. These cards are ruled for cutting with shears, thus giving an abundance of material for assembling the words and spelling lists found in Readers Nos. 1 and 2. Printed on both sides, so the letter is always up. Price, 10 cents.
No. 2. Object Cards Fifty-nine cards, 2 x 3 inches, picturing the objects introduced in the early vocabulary of Reader No. 1, such as tree, flower, leaf, boy, girl, etc., on one side, with the name in script and print on the reverse side. The script used is the same as in Reader No. 1. This picture word method not only interests the children, but makes the learning of the new object words a real delight. For their use, see Primary Reading Manual, page 42. Price, 25 cents.
No. 3. Sentence Slips The sentences used by the author of Readers Nos. 1 and 2 in her manual development of reading, are here given to the child in script form for sentence building. There are 126 sentences, for pasting into little reading books. See Primary Reading Manual, pages 33 and 49. Price, 15 cents.
No. 4. Sentence Builder Eight cards, 7 x 11 inches, with 444 phrases and 634 words for sentence building, covering the vocabulary used in Reader No. 1, and following the suggestive development of "Foundation Work" as given in Primary Reading Manual, beginning with page 30. For the first twelve weeks of school. Printed on both sides, and ruled for cutting apart. These cards are arranged by weeks, therefore the teacher or parent cuts the sentences out only as they are used. A very fine set. Price, 20 cents.
No. 5. Phonetic Builder Eight cards, 7 x 11 inches, printed in bold type, on both sides. Ruled for cutting. From five to fifteen of each word and word part used in supplementary drills, to prepare for phonetic reading. With these builders, the drill tests may be built by the child, following the order suggested in Primary Reading Manual. See page 63. Price, 20 cents.
