[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did. I read to them all the time and it was a natural progression for them to learn the sounds and letters and words. [/quote] I’ve read to my kids from birth and it did not naturally teach them to read. It did not make them enjoy reading when they finally did learn, although they do still like being read to.[/quote] +1[/quote] Evidence shows that almost all kids need direct phonic instruction in order to learn to read. Why all schools do not do this is ridiculous. [/quote] +1 And many of the kids who learned to read by “osmosis” will hit a wall in 4th grade when the reading gets much harder and hey need to decide and understand word origins for unfamiliar words.[/quote] No, they don't.
