[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mississippi has shown the way. Direct instruction using tried and true methods with clear science (example: Phonics), avoid fads (whole language, balanced literacy, and other Lucy Calkins crap). Teach kids he material directly, do not think they will learn by osmosis.[/quote] Um. Phonics is a fad. [/quote] I suspect you are a troll but no, and putting "um" in front of your idiotic statement does not make it any more true. Phonics IS reading. In Japan they teach kids to read by syllables. Do you think they would say "Forget about memorizing these syllables to sound out the word. Just absorb the whole word as a unit." Of course not because they don't hate their own people and want them illiterate.[/quote]
