[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]From edweek.org... Teachers Criticize Their Colleges of Education for Not Preparing Them to Teach Reading...”I find this so interesting that almost all of us were not taught to teach reading in our programs. I thought it was just me. We learned about read-alouds and vocabulary strategies, but were pretty much told if we get the child to enjoy reading, they will read.-- J.D.

Looks like more teachers are figuring out that their programs let them and the kids down.

Well this explains why my child’s English teacher thinks that reading more for pleasure will resolve DS’s dyslexia. She doesn’t seem to understand that if you lack the ability to decode, it’s hard to read for pleasure. She also objected to audio books and the school discouraged us from seeking remediation to learn decoding and phonic skills. It’s very frustrating for families whose children are struggling.
