Learn to Think and Write: A Paradigm for Teaching Grades 4-8, Introductory Levels

Autor Una McGinley Sarno
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 4 noi 2011
The EPILLAW Paradigm is a practical method for developing writing skills. It consists of an original nine-level taxonomy and sequential methodology of listening, speaking, writing and reading. In this method, the development of writing precedes the development of reading. The work consists of two books. In the introductory book, the author explicates the first six levels. The behaviors involved in EPILLAW train the student how to think consecutively and logically. The first three levels establish the concrete assimilation of knowledge; the middle three elevate the students' cognitive ability from the concrete to the abstract cognition of knowledge. Through charting, the students learn the EPILLAW essencing modality that enables them to think abstractly. Lastly, having achieved the skill of abstraction, the student can personalize ideas and, from there, develop writing proficiency. In the advanced book, the author explores the final three levels of the writing process.

Recenzii

This book provides readers with an innovative and very useful methodology for the teaching of language and deals specifically with the skills of listening, speaking, writing and then reading, in an order which is supported by a well-structured and original taxonomy (or EPILLAW Paradigm). I believe this book to be of very considerable benefit to teachers of the particular age group dealt directly with by Dr McGinley Sarno. More importantly, it has many very useful applications to teachers generally. The style is mature and experienced and the book is full of interesting insights.
In Learn to Think and Write, Sarno enlivens her excellent and practical text with a world of stories. Students are introduced to stories about a Mexican-American girl and an African boy, readings from classic children's literature, and selections from exciting non-fiction.
The instruction of sixth grade involves the teaching of writing, reading, and math and developing best practices that will combine the three strands within one lesson. The level V Précis of the EPILLAW Taxonomy is a perfect example of how a teacher can take advantage of a lesson reflective of composition skills, while assimilating the practice of reading, along with enforcing a child's ability to synthesize language and understand fractions as well.
This text outlines an innovative and exciting approach to the teaching of writing, reading, and comprehension.It offers an excellent guide to a methodology that engages students' senses in a journey towards the comprehension of historical and scientific facts with spelling, vocabulary and grammar as guideposts along the way to developing writing skills.
Dr Sarno has selected Mr. Dru's Joshua's Masai Mask as the final test in both her textbooks. This story provides African American male children with appropriate role models and shows how she selected material to appeal to a wide range of school children. As an educator who promotes diverse learning experiences for culturally and linguistically diverse children, Dr. Sarno's contribution is an exemplar of culturally relevant pedagogy.
