READING TIME



The Frog Prince
By Brother Grimm

One fine evening a young princess put on her bonnet and clogs, and went out to take a walk by herself in a wood; and when she came to a cool spring of water with a rose in the middle of it, she sat herself down to rest a while. Now she had a golden ball in her hand, which was her favorite plaything; and she was always tossing it up into the air, and catching it again as it fell.
  After a time she threw it up so high that she missed catching it as it fell; and the ball bounced away, and rolled along on the ground, until at last it fell down into the spring. The princess looked into the spring after her ball, but it was very deep, so deep that she could not see the bottom of it. She began to cry, and said, 'Alas! if I could only get my ball again, I would give all my fine clothes and jewels, and everything that I have in the world.' Whilst she was speaking, a frog put its head out of the water, and said, 'Princess, why do you weep so bitterly?'
 'Alas!' said she, 'what can you do for me, you nasty frog? My golden ball has fallen into the spring.'
                The frog said, 'I do not want your pearls, and jewels, and fine clothes; but if you will love me, and let me live with you and eat from off your golden plate, and sleep on your bed, I will bring you your ball again.'
                'What nonsense,' thought the princess, 'this silly frog is talking! He can never even get out of the spring to visit me, though he may be able to get my ball for me, and therefore I will tell him he shall have what he asks.'
                So she said to the frog, 'Well, if you will bring me my ball, I will do all you ask.'
                Then the frog put his head down, and dived deep under the water; and after a little while he came up again, with the ball in his mouth, and threw it on the edge of the spring. As soon as the young princess saw her ball, she ran to pick it up; and she was so overjoyed to have it in her hand again, that she never thought of the frog, but ran home with it as fast as she could.
                The frog called after her, 'Stay, princess, and take me with you as you said,' But she did not stop to hear a word. The next day, just as the princess had sat down to dinner, she heard a strange noise - tap, tap - plash, plash - as if something was coming up the marble staircase, and soon afterwards there was a gentle knock at the door, and a little voice cried out and said:

'Open the door, my princess dear,
‘Open the door to thy true love here! And mind the words that thou and I said by the fountain cool, in the greenwood shade.'

Teaching Technique


Some Techniques in teaching Reading

There are lots of techniques that a teacher may apply in their class; however, the teachers have to be careful in choosing the technique that they want to use. A teacher has to consider the students grade and also their language level before applying the technique. Here some example of the techniques that the teachers may use in teaching reading subject. 

v  Flashboard, it is use for early stage of reading
Here the teachers have to provide themselves with some flashboard. The flashboards are the same with the flashcard but in flashboard it consists of the letter of the words meanwhile in flashcard it consists of the picture of the words. How to apply this technique is the same with the way the teachers apply flashcard. So they flash the board as fast as possible so that the students will full concentrate on the letters on the boards.
v  Pictures stories, it can be used both for early stage and also intermediate
This technique is very useful when introducing a reading subject to the students. Here the students will find that the reading subject is not a boring. The students will have some stories that accompanied by some pictures so if the students find it hard to understand the text they will still be able to make sense of it through the pictures. In addition, they will find the reading text is enjoyable for they will see lots of pictures in the text.

If you can pronounce correctly every word in this poem, you will be speaking English better than 90% of the native English speakers in the world. After trying the verses, a Frenchman said he’d prefer six months of hard labour to reading six lines aloud.

Study English pronunciation.

Sounds like corpse, corps, horse, and worse.
I will keep you, Suzy, busy,
