Stevensons
Contraction Skills
|
|
This
book teaches contractions in an imaginative new way. The same emphasis
on learning by association is used in this book as in other materials
we publish. The reading and spelling of contractions, which are often
confusing to many students, are handled in a manner that is at once both
concrete and creative. Students are shown in specific, mechanical ways
how contractions are created. Then they use tactile/kinesthetic activities
to produce contractions themselves. At the same time, images like the
little man shown here engage students imaginations in ways that
not only capture attention, but also enhance memory retrieval.
Stevensons
Contraction Skills can be used by any student, whether or not they
are using the other Stevenson material. If they are in the Stevenson Program,
students are ready to begin this book after finishing Part Two of the
Basic Blue Level. If not using the Stevenson Program, any student with
a reading ability of second grade or higher can use the contraction book.
The book includes teacher directives, several pages of worksheets and
nine appendices that are reproducible for the students.
