Linguistic Approach to Reading

Bloomfield Approach

Bloomfield Approach 1. The child should be acquainted with the letters of the alphabet at the very start, before reading is begun. 2. The child should begin with the capital letters and then go to the lower case letters.

Two grounds where Bloomfield finds fault with the phonic methods: 1. The inventors of phonic methids confuse writing with speech. 2. Phonic methods the speech sounds.

3. Example of the Bloomfield approach:


a). The word cat is shown to the child. b). The child already knows the names of the letters in their order. c). The teacher lets the child read the word cat with her. d). Next, the teacher shows the same vowel and final consonant but with a different initial letter, e.g., fat, mat, hat, etc. e). The child goes through the same procedure. f) . This is followed by practice until the child can say the right word whether singly or together.
