 FOREWORD

THE Horace Mann Primer is intended as a basal first book

in reading. It has been subjected to the test of actual use
in the schoolroom, and has profited by the helpful criticisms
of hundreds of practical teachers.
Experience has shown the value of following a definite sys-
tematic method in teaching children to read. Such a method
is followed in this book, and throughout the series. In the
Manual which accompanies the series, the method is fully
explained. Some of the distinctive features of this method,
particularly as applied to the Primer, are briefly as follows :
1. " Let thought lead," a basal principle of very wide appli-
cation, is held to be particularly important at the beginning .
Every teacher knows how much easier it is to teach a well-
knit sequential " series " than a loosely organized collection
of words and sentences. When the thought sequence is inter-
rupted, interest flags and attention wanders.
The sentences in the Primer lessons form a thought sequence ;
the lessons themselves form groups which are interrelated in
thought as well as in vocabulary ; the Primer as a whole is
definitely designed to promote constructive thinking, and the
interest, attention, and growth in power that always accompany
such thinking.
2. A method of teaching beginners to read may fairly be
judged by its treatment of the vital question of phonics. If
it neglects phonics, it fails to develop independence in read
iii
ing ; if it abuses phonics, - e.g. if it lets phonics lead,— it
results in word calling ; if it wisely uses phonics, while letting
thought lead, it will result in independent and thoughtful
reading. The Horace Mann Readers provide a definitely
organized system of phonic exercises extending throughout the
first four books. The method is simple and easily followed,
the exercises being indicated in the reading books themselves ;
full and practical directions are also given in the Manual .
3. Variety of reading matter is another feature. The edit-
ors believe that rhymes and jingles are valuable reading matter
for beginners ; they also believe that cumulative and other
stories are not less valuable, and that no one form should be
used exclusively. Hence, a variety of literary forms is in-
cluded and a wide range of interests, both practical and literary,
is appealed to. Learning to read in the Horace Mann Primer
means learning to read cumulative and non-cumulative pieces,
prose and poetry, dialogues and monologues, fables, folk lore,
and stories both classic and modern .
It is proper to add that the Horace Mann Readers have been
so named in grateful recognition of the abiding influence in
American education of the great work of Horace Mann, and
in the spirit of these words of Dr. William T. Harris :
" What enthusiastic teacher is not proud to be called a dis-
ciple of Horace Mann ? "

As he ran, he saw a little rabbit.
" Good morning, Bunny," said Dick.
But the little rabbit was afraid

So on walked the little boy.
