[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So why aren’t schools just switching to Science of Reading and calling it a day? [/quote] The only things that make sense to me: 1) private schools don’t like to show how the sausage is made and will never admit they were wrong (hence the half dozen or so posts on here showing parents had zero idea this was a thing and would rather pick a fight and assume their school isn’t using these methods as they have zero clue that their child was taught poorly and assumed if they pay for private their getting the best) 2) this started in the late 90’s/early 00’s so safe to say this is the only way teachers know - and very hard to pivot. Lucy and F&P were legit rock stars - a billion dollar industry. Had lobbyists - it’s a huge deal. What I don’t get is why private schools haven’t gotten in front of it. Used Covid as an excuse like - we stepped back and retooled. Instead of legit either not talking about it or not fully changing it. [/quote]
