So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue to undertake things for children that children can only do for themlves. Teaching children to read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainly not endless hours spent in activities about reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stop trying to do the impossible." Teaching and learning are two entirely different process. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devi the most efficient system for teaching themlves to read. Teaching is also a public activity: it can be en and obrved. Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make n of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that process is not open to public examination. If teacher and learner roles are distinguishable, how can teaching aid the child in the quest for knowledge? Smith has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children." When the roles of teacher and learner are en for what they are, and when both teacher and learner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of learning to read by reading. | |

Society usually tends to focus on the negative side of inner-city schools. Many people like to stereotype (模式化) the schools which, while the general statements may be true in some cas, tend to be wor most of the time. People think that the students of the schools receive inferior educations. My school, an inner-city school named St. Ignatius, is regarded as one of the best in the state. People also believe that violence occurs on a daily basis, both in the school itlf and in the nearby city. I cannot even remember a rious fight at St. Ignatius. People who think that the teachers at inner-city schools lack love for their job worn this typical stereotype even further. My teachers not only had a love for teaching, but they were also able to cultivate a love for learning in their students. Take Mrs. Borroni, my Spanish teacher, for example. She would often take time out of her class to tell her students about the numerous activities after class with which we should get involved. She loved her job so much that she stayed after school every day to moderate activities such as "Amnesty International" (an international organization that protects human rights) and the Spanish Club. Her students, including me, joined all of the clubs which she moderated just becau she made them so interesting. After reading all of this, most people would argue that St. Ignatius should not be considered a true "inner-city school". While this may hold some truth, I am arguing that my life was greatly enriched simply becau of the school's location in the middle of Cleveland, as oppod to a poor suburban area. | |
