The Project Gutenberg eBook of Brooks's Readers First Year, by Stratton D. Brooks.

The sole purpose of this book is to help the children to learn to read. While it may ultimately lead to the acquisition of knowledge concerning many subjects, its present aim is only to make reading easy. The lessons are, therefore, on subjects familiar to every child. The words are such as children habitually use in conversation; they are introduced gradually, and as a rule are repeated many times. Since proficiency in reading is best attained by much practice, care has been taken to present as large an amount as possible of interesting matter which the child can readily master. Every line is for the pupil to read. The stories are so constructed as to encourage and secure naturalness of expression without the intervention of rules or formal drills. The gradation both in thought and in expression is easy and natural.

Although the learning of words by much repetition and familiarity with their forms is an essential feature of this book, its foundation is nevertheless phonetic. Yet, for the sake of leaving it perfectly adaptable to any method of teaching, the phonetic basis has not been emphasized. The systematic introduction of words which may serve as key-words for the acquisition of others containing similar phonetic elements has been carefully observed, and it is believed that this is the natural method untrammeled by any artificial classification.

As further aids toward making the child's first reading lessons easy, the sentences are short. There are no broken lines in the first hundred pages. Indentations help the young reader to keep the place. There are no interfering illustrations in the text. Each story is complete without turning a leaf.

Grateful acknowledgments are extended to Miss Frances Lilian Taylor of Galesburg, Illinois, to Mr. W. J. Button of Chicago, and to Miss Matilda Mitchell, primary teacher, Phillips Brooks School, Boston, for valuable suggestions and assistance.

SUGGESTIONS TO TEACHERS

As stated on the preceding page, the foundation of this work is phonetic. The author believes that children may profitably learn many words without reference to their phonetic composition, and that among these certain key-words should be selected from which the elementary sounds of the language may be developed. These elements will give the pupils the power of acquiring new words. For example, observe the following key-words and the sounds developed from them:—

Observe the great number of easy and common words that may be developed from the sounds thus learned from the first ten key-words named above. The list includes an , as , ran , had , pan , man , tan , let , met , pet , bet , men , pen , fig , did , bit , little , not , lot , got , hot , log , and a great many more. Similar key-words emphasizing the remaining sounds should be selected as the work proceeds. Teachers preferring to introduce the sounds less rapidly, may teach these first words as words and select others later in the book to serve as key-words. The blackboard should be in constant use, and the pupils' ingenuity in forming new words and new sentences should be tested at every recitation. The few exercises in script given at the beginning of the book are suggestive of the manner in which much additional drill in reading may be presented on the blackboard. The diacritical marks should not be taught to the children.

A BUSY TIME

THE COW

THE RAIN

THE BROOK

Here we are at the brook again. See how fast the water runs. Stand still and hear the brook sing. I hear it, I hear it. What does it say when it sings? It says: I am a little brook. [Pg 87] I run, and I sing as I run. I give water to the trees and the grass. I give water to the pretty white lily. The cows come to see me. I give them water to drink. The robins sing to me every morning. The flowers love me. Why do you run all the time, little brook? Where are you going this fine day? I am running to the sea. I run, and still I am always here. Boys and girls like to play by the brook. They find many pretty things. Can you tell what they find? I think they sometimes find a flower. Sometimes they catch a fish in the brook. Good-by, little brook! We will see you again.

LITTLE BOPEEP

My name is Bopeep. Do you see all my sheep and lambs? I take care of them. I find grass and water for them. One day I lost my pretty sheep. [Pg 98] I could not find them any where. How did Bopeep find her sheep? I will tell you how she found them. She looked here, she looked there. She went down to the brook. No sheep were there. She called and called. She stood still to listen. She heard not a sheep. Bopeep sat down on the grass. The birds sang to her. The brook sang to the birds. Then little Bopeep went to sleep. The sheep and lambs came running. They came out of the woods. "Here we are, little Bopeep," they said. "We have come back to you. [Pg 99] We have come to live with you again." Little Bopeep looked up. She saw her sheep and lambs. All had come back to her. How glad she was to see them! They drank the water from the brook. They ate the green grass. The lambs played under the trees. "Oh, my pretty lambs!" said little Bopeep.

THE SNOW

One morning in winter Grace heard her mother calling her.
"Come here, Grace! Come here, and look out of the window."
Grace ran to the window and looked out. What do you think she saw?
The snow was falling.
The ground was white with snow.
"Oh, mother," said Grace, "how pretty it is! Everything is white with snow.
Where does the snow come from?"
"It falls from the clouds," said her mother. "In summer the clouds bring rain. In winter they bring snow."

At school the boys and girls were glad.
"It snows! It snows!" they said.
"Now we shall have a fine time.
We can make snowballs.
We can ride on our sleds.
We can play in the snow."

MY SHIP AT SEA

CHRISTMAS BELLS

THE BIRDS IN WINTER

One morning Marian looked out of her window. The snow was falling.
"How cold the wind blows," she said.
"The trees are all frozen and bare. The brook is frozen over.
The pretty robin's nest is full of snow.
There are no birds in the woods. Where do the birds go when winter comes?"
"They fly to the sunny South, where the snow does not come," said Robert.
"They will come back to us in the spring. They will sing glad songs and build new nests."

Out in the snow a little bird was hopping.
"See, Robert, see!" said Marian.
"That little bird did not fly to the sunny South.
"How cold it must be! Its little feet must be frozen."
"That is a snowbird," said Robert.
"It likes the snow. It does not mind the cold. It stays here all winter."

LITTLE BOY BLUE

"Oh, Ned," said Rose one day, "what do you think I have? It is a new story book.
Father gave it to me this morning. I have been reading in it."
"It is a pretty book," said Ned. "Are there any good stories in it?"
"Oh, yes. One story is about a little boy who went to sleep in the meadow.
I don't know what his name was, but they called him Little Boy Blue.
He took care of the sheep and the cows. He had a horn to blow.
The sheep and the cows would come when they heard the horn."
"Here is the story, now. And here is the picture of Little Boy Blue.

DRIVING THE COWS

Robert lives on a farm.
His father is a farmer.
Robert helps his father.
He helps take care of the chickens and the lambs.
Sometimes he drives the cows to the meadow.
Sometimes he drives them home at night.
"Where are the cows, Robert?"
"I think they are in the meadow."
"Will you not drive them home? It is time to milk them."
"Yes, father, I will bring them home. I like to drive them.
I will take the dog with me.

Come, Don. You know how to drive the cows.
You may come with me.
There they are by the meadow brook.
See, they are drinking from the brook.
Drive them, Don! Drive them home.
There they go! What a fine thing it is to live on a farm!"

THE BOX OF TOOLS

Frank lives in the city. He has never seen a farm. He has never seen a brook.
He has never heard the robins singing in the tree tops.
A river runs by the city. Sometimes Frank goes down to the river to see the boats and ships.
Sometimes he plays in the street by his home.
The street is not a good place to play.
Frank has many playthings, and he is as happy as any farmer boy.
He would not be happy on a farm.

SPRING

Winter has gone. Spring has come.
There is no snow on the ground now.
The days are warm and bright. The sun is high in the sky.
Soon the ground will be green with grass.
There are wild flowers in the woods now.
All the birds have come back from the South.
The robin is here. He is building a nest in the old tree.
Soon there will be some little blue eggs in the nest.
The old owl did not go South. But he is glad that spring has come.

THE FIVE GOATS

Five goats were in a field.
There they found green grass to eat, and good water to drink.
[Pg 117] At night the farmer's boy and his little sister came to drive them home.
One night the goats wanted to stay in the field.
The little girl ran after them. But she could not drive them out.
"Now I will try," said the boy.
So the boy ran after the goats. But they would not go out for him.
Just then a dog came by.
"Let me try," said the dog.
"I have more legs than a boy. I can run faster."
He ran after the goats.
He barked and barked. But the goats would not go out of the field.
Soon a fox came to see what the dog was doing.
[Pg 118] "Let me try," he said. "I know more than a dog, and I can run fast."
The fox ran after the goats. But he could not drive them out of the field.
"Let me try," said a horse that was looking on. "I am big and strong."
But the goats would not go out for the horse.
A busy bee came into the field.
"Buzz! buzz!" it said. "I think I can drive them out. Let me try."
"What can you do? You are too little to drive goats," said the boy.
"You are smaller than I am," said the little girl.
"You can not bark," said the dog.
"You don't know much," said the fox.
[Pg 119] "You can't run round the field on four feet," said the horse.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!" said the bee.
"We will see; we will see;" and away it flew.
It flew by the big goat's ear.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz!" it said.
The goat looked up. "What is that?" he said; and he ran out of the field.
The little goat looked up. "If you go out, I will go out," he said; and out he ran.
"So will I. So will I. So will I," said the three white goats; and all ran out of the field.
Then the boy and his sister drove the goats home.
"If the bee had not helped us, what could we have done?" they said.

MAKING BUTTER

Do you know how I make butter? I will tell you.
Every day the cows give us fresh milk.
Ned brings the milk to the house.
I have some large tin pans. At night I put the fresh milk in these pans.
In the morning I find yellow cream on the top of the milk.
Then I take off the cream and put it in my churn.
I churn and churn till the cream turns to butter.
I take the butter out.
I leave the buttermilk in the churn.

Here is one of my butter balls.
It is on a little dish.
Bennie and Marian like butter.
They like bread and milk, too.
All boys and girls eat bread.
Do you like bread and butter?

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg™

Project Gutenberg™ is synonymous with the free distribution of electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from people in all walks of life.

Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg™’s goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg™ collection will remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure and permanent future for Project Gutenberg™ and future generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at www.gutenberg.org.

Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit 501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service. The Foundation’s EIN or federal tax identification number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state’s laws.

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation

Project Gutenberg™ depends upon and cannot survive without widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations ($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt status with the IRS.

The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate .

While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who approach us with offers to donate.

International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate.

Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg™ electronic works

Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg™ concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and distributed Project Gutenberg™ eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.

Project Gutenberg™ eBooks are often created from several printed editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.

Most people start at our website which has the main PG search facility: www.gutenberg.org .

This website includes information about Project Gutenberg™, including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
