SUGGESTIONS FOR TEACHING READING IN INFANT CLASSES
128 p. Reprinted 1975. Supplement Teachers Guide $2.25

Teachers have long been asking for first reading books that are closely associated with New Zealand children’s own experiences. The “Ready to Read” books were written to satisfy this need and when the stories were written teachers in more than 30 schools tried out the texts and made detailed reports on them. The book in its final form owes something to these reports. The “Suggestions for Teaching” book is the teachers’ handbook that introduces the Ready to Read Series. With its straightforward, uncomplicated approach this handbook may give teachers renewed pleasure in their work. (Department of Education.)

The report is designed to give an impression of the major outcomes of the discussion, not only indicating where a measure of consensus emerged, but also pointing out where people disagreed. (Educational Development Conference.)
