SPELLER. w. p. 6 PREFACE Eecentlt, for causes which this book is intended to obviate, many teachers have abandoned the use of a regular spelling book, preferring to select the words from other text-books. This plan has been found deficient in at least two particulars. Certain words often misspelled do not properly belong to any subject of the school curriculum ; and, more serious still, words copied from dictation or from the blackboard are often incor- rectly copied, and hence a wrong concept is formed. This vol- ume is presented with a view to overcoming these difficulties. The words were selected by class-room teachers. Several teachers in a certain grade observed the class vocabulary for one year ; each teacher then submitted a list of several hundred words. These lists were subsequently compared, condensed, and approved at a joint consultation of teachers, principals, and superintendent. The selection was governed by five important considerations : 1. What words ought children of a certain age to know ? 2. What words are they obliged to use in their various subjects ? 3. What words are they likely to misspell ? 4. What words do they use in ordinary conversation ? 5. What words will they be obliged to use in after life ? Geographical terms have been omitted, because courses of study differ very materially as to the time when this subject is begun, what topic should first be treated, and what method should be employed. Although children will misspell words in composition, which they spell correctly when listed, no effort has here been made to present a language book. Dictation exercises have been omitted for three chief reasons : 1. To compose a paragraph containing all the words of a certain lesson or group, no matter what the plan of classifica- tion may be, is to present that which is sure to lack literary merit if not sense. 2. To present masterpieces of literature from which words are to be selected, is to assume that the child needs to know and is likely to misspell such words only as are found in literature proper. 3. To give appropriate dictation exercises involving words presented, would be to outline in detail an entire course of study, to reproduce juvenile conversation, and to suggest plans of correlation beyond the province or purpose of the authors. Little effort has been made to classify the words, because careful gradation interferes with close classification. The less difficult words are at the beginning of chapters, because other subjects of the curriculum are so arranged and graded. The lists are not designed to place a limit upon the number of words to be taught in each grade ; they are presented simply as a minimum requirement. Each teacher is at liberty and is expected to teach such other words as are necessary. This plan should prevent a vast amount of duplication and much unnecessary drill upon words already well known. In the preparation of matter for this book I have been ably assisted by two grammar-school principals of White Plains, Miss Lodiski L. Williams and Miss Julia Van Orden. To them and all the teachers who have assisted in preparing the different lists, I desire to express my appreciation. I wish also to credit Superintendent Fred E. Knapp, of Hempstead, N.Y., with giving me the first suggestion which led to this publication. S. R. SHEAR. Kingston, N.Y. SUGGESTIONS TO TEACHERS METHOD 1. At each recitation the words for next lesson should be spelled orally, pronounced, their meaning discussed, and their use illustrated. Words should be carefully scrutinized, the teacher calling attention to any peculiarity in spelling. 2. The pupils afterwards prepare this lesson for next day. 3. At the next spelling recitation the advanced lesson is treated as above, and the pupils are then called upon to write from memory the words discussed on the previous day. 4. It is well to have words pronounced by those pupils who are naturally deficient in enunciation or phonics. 5. Have an oral review at least once each week. If a lesson is properly prepared, it is unnecessary for the teacher to pronounce the words, and there is no doubt that pupils will make a more thorough preparation if they do not have the pronunciation to lean upon. This method has stood the test of practice, and the results are highly gratifying. Better spelling is obtained in all written work, greater concentration and less dreaming are manifested in recitation as well as in the preparation of every subject. Spelling is largely a matter of memory, and the chief reasons why children spell so poorly is that they copy words incorrectly, they dawdle over the preparation, and they gain wrong concepts of the words or no concept at all. MATTER 1. Each teacher should not only teach the words of her own grade, but should give a sufficient amount of drill upon the words of pre- ceding grades; no recitation should be confined entirely to the study of new words. 2. The spelling of all geographical terms and proper names should be taught as the words occur in the daily lessons. In all subjects, either elementary or advanced, new words should receive careful attention, and the spelling as well as the meaning should be mastered. 3. Homonyms and antonyms are extremely troublesome to children, hence a large number of exercises involving such words are presented. Most of these have been taken from class work or have been suggested by the grammar-school pupils. That the great law of comparison may be utilized, the words are arranged in groups, although some educators object to this plan. Sentences instead of definitions have 5 been used in the lower grades to elucidate this class of words, because the illustration is more likely to be neglected by the teacher, while the definition, because of brevity, is apt to be misleading if not wrong. Above the fifth grade neither sentences nor definitions are given, as the pupils at this age are supposed to be able and anxious to help themselves to the meaning and use of such homonyms and antonyms as may be presented in each lesson. 4. Dictation exercises should be used to test penmanship, capitali- zation, paragraphing, syntax, and spelling, but it should be remem- bered that spelling is only a feature of this sort of work. To afford material for dictation work of a helpful kind, synonyms have been introduced with the other w^ork in the fourth, fifth, and sixth grades. At first each group is supposed to occupy two periods ; one for discussion and preparation and the other for recitation. A study of synonyms not only improves the sj)elling, but it enlarges the child's vocabulary, increases his interest in the dictionary, and leads to greater fluency of expression. 5. As an outgrowth of the work in synonyms, words easily con- fused are presented in the seventh grade. This line of work is helpful in the matter of enunciation and discrimination, and it can be increased as the teacher may desire. 6. Children should consult a dictionary not only for the pronuncia- tion and spelling of words, but for the origin and meaning. Webster's dictionary is recommended for use in this work. 7. One of the chief reasons why children spell so poorly is that rules are seldom taught. Keeping this fact in mind, we present some of the most common as well as the most general rules of orthography, and at a time when the children are able to make intelligent use of them. 8. No attempt has been made to present an exhaustive list of abbreviations. As they arise from day to day in arithmetic, geog- raphy, language, and other subjects they should be thoroughly taught and thoroughly illustrated. 9. The poems at the end of the chapters for the lower grades are introduced for memorizing, and to aid in the method recommended. 10. All written work must be carefully reviewed and correct spelling required at all times. 11. Sight, hearing, motor activity, attention, and every possible faculty should be brought to bear during a spelling period. Insist upon concentration and the results will be certain.

I hear in a chamber above me The patter of little feet, The sound of a door that is opened, And voices soft and sweet. From my study I see in the lamplight, Descending the broad hall stair, Brave Alice, and laughing Allegra, And Edith with golden hair. A whisper, and then a silence : Yet I know by their merry eyes They are plotting and planning together To take me by surprise. A sudden rush from the stairway, A sudden raid from the hall ! By three doors left unguarded They enter my castle wall ! 20 SECOND YEAR They climb up into my turret, O'er the arms and back of my chair; If I try to escape they surround me ; They seem to be everywhere. They almost devour me with kisses, Their arms about me entwine, Till I think of the Bishop of Bingen In his Mouse Tower on the Rhine ! Do you think, blue-eyed banditti. Because you have scaled the wall, Such an old mustache as I am Is not a match for you all ? I have you fast in my fortress, And will not let you depart, But put you down into the dungeon In the round-tower of my heart. And there will I keep you forever, Yes, forever and a day. Till the walls shall crumble to ruin. And molder in dust away. -— Henby Wadswobth Longfellow.

And dreary would the garden be. With all its flowery trees, Suppose there were no butterflies. And suppose there were no bees. And what would all the beauty be, And what the song that cheers. Suppose we hadn't any eyes. And suppose we hadn't ears. For though the grass were gay and green. And song birds filled the glen. And the air were purple with butterflies. What good would they all do then ? Ah, think of it, my little friends; And when some pleasure flies, Why, let it go, and still be glad That you have your ears and eyes. — Phoebe Cart.
