[quote=Anonymous]Read Natalie Wexler, The Knowledge Gap. It describes how schools teach reading "strategies" like finding the main idea and identifying text features. Reading it was a light bulb moment when I totally identified exactly what my kids did in APS "book club," spending precious little time on actually building the knowledge base that underpins true reading comprehension. Instead it was like worksheet after worksheet of random practice passages and questions to prepare for the SOLs.[/quote]
