Written by respected authorities in the fields of education and
literacy studies, "Words: The Foundation of Literacy" is a
groundbreaking book for teachers, administrators, and education
students. Dale and Bonnie Johnson present a fresh, inspiring
reminder of why studying language--from word origins to word
structure--is such a vital first step in the development of
students' vocabulary, literacy, writing skills, and overall ability
to learn.
At a time when high-stakes testing has squeezed substance from
many curricula, Johnson and Johnson provide ways to enhance
students' understanding, interest, and appreciation of language and
all its subtleties. "Words" explores how meaning in language is
created by the use and interrelationships of words, phrases, and
sentences, their denotations, connotations, implications, and
ambiguities. From birth, most children exhibit a natural interest
in language--its sounds, nuances, and unpredictable qualities. It
is important to sustain, stimulate, and recapture that natural
interest in the classroom, and "Words" provides a multitude of
creative and practical techniques for doing so.
