Attend Reading Clinic
Mrs. Ernest W Meal and Mrs.
David Hamrick, two teachers on
the faculty of Trinity Day School,
attended a reading clinic in Glen
Rock, New Jersey, on May 4 and
5.
The tcache's were sent by Tri
nity Day School to study the
widely publicized method of
reading known as the Carden
Method.
This method, developed by
Miss Mae Carden, who led the
ebnk* in New Jersey, deals with
reading from a phonics approach
and emphasizes reading in thou
ght groups rather than one word
at a time It is a method whereby
the students are taught to think
about what They are reading ra
ther than to focus their attent
ion merely on words themselves,
without understanding wf.at the
words are saying. The method
also incorporates speQiitg and
wx-abulary.
The clinic was attended by tea-'
."hens from many states, includ
ing public and private school
systems.
Trinity Day School plans to pet
this method Into effect in its
classes and thereby ado to Che
