Based on Observation. "Concerning (3), my statements were based on what I in thousands of classrooms throughout the United States. In only one classroom did I see any 'boning' in the sense of individual repetition of the correct spelling of a word or basic number fact (as 8 and 9 are 17), with the word or fact being looked at by the learner; hundreds were tested on spelling or these number facts before the correct spelling of the word or the number fact had been learned. Frequently words were writen or combinations used in 'motivated' exercises or problems before they had been mastered or studied as facts, on the assumption that the correct spelling or fact would be learned incidentally.
"Concerning (4), I contend that in addition to hearing and reading good English, the learner should profit from drills in correct grammatical forms of those types most often used incorrectly, and also from acquired techniques for checking his own speech and writing critically--which good grammar teaching aims to do."
