Picture--Vocabulary--Story, P-V-S: A Guide to the New Reading Process through a Total Language Approach.
Lloyd, Bruce A.
This pamphlet presents a medium which attempts to capitalize on the major strengths of all reading language approaches by incorporating the three basic teaching methods (auditory-visual-kinesthetic). The Picture-Vocabulary-Story (PVS) medium is designed to provide students with suitable experiences, knowledge of vocabulary, comprehension of what they are doing, and the ability to synthesize. The construction of a lesson includes: (1) selecting a picture that tells a story, (2) identifying a list of words related to the picture, (3) mounting the picture on a piece of cardboard, (4) dividing the back of the picture into equal-size rectangles, (5) printing the vocabulary words in the rectangles, (6) dividing the right side of a file folder into the same number of rectangles as the back of the picture, (7) printing the vocabulary from the back of the picture onto the file folder in the same sequence, and (8) cutting the picture into the same number of rectangles that appear on the back. The pupil then uses the PVS by matching the vocabulary cards by placing them on the file folder, closing the file folder and flipping it over, opening the folder with picture on the left and vocabulary on the right, studying the picture and vocabulary, and writing his own story using the picture and vocabulary words.
