At different times, always have had their methods of teaching reading and other sciences.After a while these techniques are forgotten, and after a while well-forgotten training methods come up again, thus becoming the new, which is well forgotten old.Each of these methods has its undeniable advantages, but also some disadvantages, too, is not without.There
pedagogical practices are two basic methods, which are based on its very opposite.One of them is called phonological, the other - by as much as words.The debate on whether you want to teach children to phonetics and tested at the beginning of the XX century, culminated in the thirtieth year after the studies, which resulted in the teachers came to the conclusion that teaching phonetics still need, that's just the question of whether, in what volumeto give her children, remained open.
Studies was raised an interesting experiment.It was taken two groups of six-year olds, one of them trained by the method of reading whole words, and the second - on the phonological method.The results were very entertaining: a result of the first test (the first stage) read aloud the best children in the first group, the method of teaching reading whole words.But testing at the end of the second year of study showed that children who were engaged on the phonological method is much better at reading unfamiliar words and significantly outperformed children from the first group in the richness of his vocabulary and level of perception.
children engaged by the method of whole words, often doing quite typical, even the same mistakes.For example, when reading the signatures on pictures they could replace the word on loved ones - instead of "Lion" to say "tiger" and the like.Since the word in the minds of children are strictly assigned to a certain value, the children in this group have not learned for a year to learn to read any new word without the help of adults.
So it became clear that Phonetics is indispensable for young students.Studies conducted recently confirmed that the majority of people still read the words letter by letter.However, the reading process is nearly instantaneous, so most people think that the word is perceived as a whole.
Thus, it is clear that the methods of teaching reading can not be used in isolation, but must be used in combination.The method allows entire words to learn how to perceive the graphic image of the word, and with the help of the phonological method child can learn to read new words.
Moreover, psychologists have confirmed that reading - is not nothing but a recitation of the text himself.Many believe that when reading the words are perceived by the text directly.But, as the experience, reading involves the same areas of the cerebral cortex, which in pronouncing words.However, the ability to perceive a graphic image of the word may speed up the process of reading the text, and it is this ability can be developed.
So we have come close to what can be described as intense training methods, all methods of learning to read can be used as the study of the native language and a foreign language.However, I do not think that it could be just about teaching children to read.There are active methods of teaching students reading in a foreign language, and speaking to them.
Active methods mainly based on practical mastering of new knowledge while applying them in practice.The only way to learn a new foreign language in the shortest possible time.That is why these methods are widely used in a variety of cases, but it is particularly useful in teaching foreign languages, and not just reading in the preschool years.
