Description
The McGuffey's New Second Eclectic Reader is designed to provide age-appropriate material for language arts instruction. This reader begins with a lesson on articulation, followed by 71 language arts lessons based on character-building stories, essays, and poetry. Each paragraph or stanza is numbered, making it easy to assign portions of a passage or poem as copywork, recitation, or narration. Spelling words are listed at the beginning of each lesson, and most stories and nonfiction pieces are accompanied by questions about the text. The book includes an 18-page introduction that provides instructions for using Charlotte Mason's language arts methods, such as copywork, recitation, and narration. This reader is suitable for use with Miss Mason's methods, which emphasize short lessons learned well. It offers a convenient source of age-appropriate material for teaching language arts in a structured and effective way.
