Reading is one of mankind's delights, and a main source of information. The approach to a reading lesson must focus the pupil's attention upon the central thought, to find in the thought an expression of her needs, desires, and interests. New ideas, or reorganization of familiar ideas, form the basis of informational reading, and these readers take advantage of the pupil's curiosity, and the impetus to share observations. Word work, in the form of vocabulary all must learn, augmented by a complete vocabulary appropriate to strong learners, are basic to these readers. Word recognition is enhanced by context relation, repetition, and phonic drills. Ideas for expressive reading and varied activities are also given.
