What do the schools do with these child ren. Many systems throughout the nation do not begin a formal read ing program in the kindergarten. The leaching of reading in kin dergarten has been discouraged by some educators. The children are given a readiness program. This consists of experiences de signed to prepare them for learn ing how to read. Children arriving at school ex pect to learn more about read ing. They are excited about this prospect. But some schools place them back in a preparatory phase. This thinking was realistic 30 years ago. Children needed exper iences to help them with learning to rend. Today, they probably have been exposed to more var ied experiences than even the schools previously provided. Media Provide Experiences Books, newspapers, television, radio, and movies are major fac tors. Parents also contribute with increased travel, nursery schools, etc. This is not completely true for all children, but surely there is a vast number who fit into this category. Recognizing that indi viduals are 'different, there arc certainly those children who are not ready even in first grade. Reading programs are usually based on a series of textbooks. There are one or more books and accompanying teacher's manuals for each grade level (pre-primer, primer, 1st grade. 2nd. 3rd. etc The manual specifically tells the teacher each step to be taken, This organized approach is sim ple and inviting. The children are' placed in groups with each group moving slowly or rapidly as they learn the skills. Why don't they all learn to read? All of these children are expect ed to read in Uie same books and learn by the same methods If they don't understand at the first attempt the lessons are re pealed. The results are that some fourth graders are reading in second grade book. How can they find interest and enthusiasm in immature stories? It is just as unrealistic for a third grader to read the stories written lor fifth or sixth grader. Teacher Exercise Skills Perhaps the answer lies with the teacher. A teacher should be well trained in the teaching of reading skills. This is not always the case. She then relies on the manual instead of feeling secure and using her own creative ap proach. The good teacher who has learned to recognize problems and who is free to use various methods can often, through her own creative efforts, reach the child who is having difficulty. Obviously, the typical reading program lacks the flexibility to meet the needs ot all cnnciren There is a need for the develop ment of reading programs which recognize that different children; should begin reading at different ages; learn at different rates have manv different interests; need material suited to their lev el and interest; sometimes have physical or emotional problems HAMBER OMMENTS by GEORGE T.

Coopcrrider, announced Sept. 12 that recently alloted federal aid funds will be used to fence the Blue Lake camping area and to help in carrying out ihe'-genoral clean-up, fix-up program. Cooperrider noted lhat the new fence will not be used to exclude the use of the adjacent range from cattle, but to limit the grazing time the area is used. The pas ture will be opened to grazing at the times it is not used greatly for recreation. "Most likely we will use this pasture for a holding field when the cattlemen are gathering their cattle before hunting season," he said. Blue Lake is in the heart of Mo doc County's Warner Mountains where the mule deer arc preve lent. The lakeside campsites are used in the fall as base camps for hunters. h RR Nfi THE FAMILY Broosted Chicken Spaghetti Pizza Pie Try Our New French Fried Ravioli Eat 'Em Here or Orders To Go.
