62. Spelling, Grammar Still A Worry spelling, grammar still a worry. Dominion 31 October1996. AgnesMary Brooke (Nelson). This opinion starts by quoting Marva Collins New http://www.home.school.nz/meddom01.htm

Spelling, grammar still a worry Dominion 31 October1996 Agnes-Mary Brooke (Nelson) This opinion starts by quoting Marva Collins: " New methods and new theories are not the solution. In fact they have been the primary cause of mis-education. Teachers need to stop looking for excuses and teach. " The article then looks at the cost to industry and society of sub-standard literacy. They also look at the problems many students face in secondary school because they lack basic competence in reading, writing and comprehension. Biophysicist Harold Chugani of the University of California claims that trillions of connections between neurons are maintained in early childhood till the brain determines how many are needed. Those that are not are eliminated. That is, the more young children use their minds, the more brain cells they have and the more connections they keep. The second part of the article suggests that New Zealand's costly Reading recovery system is part of the problem. Based on a report from the British Office for Standards in Education, the author claims that whole language methods do not work, especially for children from disadvantaged backgrounds. ( Could it be that other parents at least partially compensate for the inherent defects in the system?

64. Spelling, Grammar Still A Worry The real world is not really too attractive. Contact 18 March 1999. Vivienne Ball. Hands up all home schoolers who have been told http://www.home.school.nz/medcon01.htm

The 'real world' is not really too attractive Contact 18 March 1999 Vivienne Ball Hands up all home schoolers who have been told that children have to learn to live in the real world! This article is for you. It starts: "Lower Hutt woman Vivienne Ball believes children must be nurtured, not pushed helter-skelter towards independence." This hit a nerve with me. We believe that children are forced to mature too fast - they are being robbed of their childhood. On the other hand, teenagers are still being treated as children, when they should be starting to take part, under the watchful eye of their elders, in the real world. Is it any wonder they often behave like children? In talking of preparing children for the "real world", Vivienne says: "This real world seems to consist of mean capitalists, greedy employers and horrible people generally. Preparing our children for this world means exposing them to as many bullies as possible, letting others steal their possessions, and encouraging them as they get older to do hours of work for a pittance." "Research has shown that most misbehaviour in children is the result of basic needs not being met. These include the need for love, belonging, freedom and power. Proper independence comes gradually as the result of nurturing the child and working with them as they take on a little more responsibility at a time."

78. Re: Spelling/grammar Checks Re spelling/grammar checks. From kajaw Date 1612-03 Time 164810 Remote Name 129.63.80.65. Comments. I didnt want to dignify http://www.camara.dk/_bantaba/000006f4.htm

Reply Next Previous Up ... Nijii Re: Spelling/grammar checks From: kajaw Date: Time: Remote Name: Comments I didnt want to dignify this attack with an answer but i guess i have to. First of all, if you read the last statement you wrote, either you do not realize that it is gramatically wrong or you might be disingenious. No when i am writing in a horry as i do when posting these articles i will not go that far to please you. If you like to know whether i write well, give me your e-mail and i will send you some of my research papers. I could also give you refrefrences to professional magazines that have published my articles. Maybe this will satisfy you. I am very dissapointed that you even made refrence to Aku. I respect Aku as a genuine language. It is a language that some people identify with and i respect it and so should you. I am also grately dissapointed that instead of dealing with some of the issues i have raised, you choose to extracate yourself from the debate and rather choose to attack me. Sure, i do make spelling mistakes. In fact, i am one of those people who cannot write without the help of the spell checker. English is not my native language and i am still learning it. After reading the last line you wrote, i have concluded that English is not your first language either. I do not necessarely have to be an expart in english. However, i am an expart in my language Mandinka and am also an expart in the language of my profession. In the future dear prof, if you do not have important things to add to this forum, i would urge you to resist the temptation of puting out any babble. These kinds of attacks are what made the Gambianews forum feel like a zoo.
