Excerpt from How to Teach to Read: The Ten Great Steps Fully Explained Within the past ten years a great deal of thought has been given to the methods to be employed in teaching a child to read. It has been apparent that While children assuredly have learned to read, (1) that a great number have no pressing desire to employ themselves afterwards in reading.
