[quote=Anonymous]NP- I think there is a theme of teachers saying things that are basically if whole language doesn’t work for your kid then you need to teach phonics yourselves. The teachers who weren’t trained in more modern teaching methods don’t get that without good systemic phonics instruction that reading skills will fall apart later. I have a neurotypical kid and a dyslexic kid so I pay attention to that stuff. I was happy to see that DCPS have a solid plan. And my kids weren’t taught proper letter formation at school. Dyslexic child was taught cursive by tutor and in private school. I taught them cursive myself.[/quote]
