Abstract
This chapter discusses the importance of reading for information. Work on a central theme naturally provides an incentive for reading and listening for information on some aspect of the topic because the results of these exercises can be incorporated in a class exhibition or publication, and because each group or individual can have the satisfaction of presenting one aspect of the work to the rest of the class before that final stage is reached. There is no better way of stressing the value of reading, selecting, and recording factual material than one that works toward communication. At every stage of school life, when a central theme is being introduced, before the individuals or groups turn to their especial tasks but after the general inspirational talk, a passage on one aspect of the topic should be studied to make the children conscious of the aims of their later reading.
