dc.description.abstract | This study was conducted in order to investigate the relationship between two approaches to teaching literacy--traditional basal-driven methods and literature-based whole language approaches--and the attitudes toward reading among first grade students. The subjects consisted of 194 first grade students in two suburban school districts. The subjects were asked to complete a survey administered by their classroom teacher. This survey asked questions concerning attitudes toward reading. Survey information was compiled and summarized in table and paragraph form. A statistically significant difference in attitudes among students between the two separate types of teaching methods was not found. The null hypothesis was accepted. | |
