[quote=Anonymous]It is so disheartening listening to this podcast. I was a teacher from 1995-1999. I had to hide my phonics material because I was supposed to teach whole language. I can’t believe schools are using Lucy Calkins curriculum. We are dooming generations of students to bring functionally illiterate. I made sure I taught my own kids to read using phonics BEFORE they started kindergarten. I didn’t want them being required to memorize sight words and use the first letter to guess instead of doing the hard work of sounding out words. [/quote]
