[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I honestly do not follow. If you are illiterate, scientific and historical context isn't going to help you READ that sentence. Literacy is fundamental. It is the first step to learning other stuff. Science and history and music are wasted if you can't read. [/quote] The Garfield kids are not illiterate in the way you imagine - they can read and write. They may know their letters and may be able to sound out words and recognize many words. They don't rate "proficient" on the tests because they don't understand the meaning of the questions or don't express themselves well in writing. [/quote]
