Christopher JollyComments by Christopher Jolly, Managing Director of Jolly Learning Ltd., British Council conference, Brunei, Thursday 9th October 2003.) The English language is far more logical than people first believe. It doesn't need guessing for successful reading and spelling, it just needs systematic teaching. "…. We see phonics as the foundation, and yes it is the development of skills. We then see literacy as having two strands, a skills one which is about phonics and grammar and spelling, and a creative one, which is about storybooks. Let me give you a Confucian proverb, if I may. It is this. If a person have two pennies with one let him buy bread and with the other a flower. The bread to give life and the flower a reason for living. Phonics and grammar are like bread; they give the ability. Storybooks are like the flower; they give the reason for learning to read. The conclusion I offer you is that we need both the quantitative and the qualitative elements in education, and some understanding of how best to integrate them to get the best results." |
