[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly, how do you expect one teacher to teach 28 children how to read?! I taught my kids before they started school. Learning to read is a tedious, time-consuming task that requires one-on-one repetition; the classroom is the worst environment to learn how to read.[/quote] It can be done much more effectively than it is now. Ability grouping makes it doable. [/quote] If 20 of the kids come into the class knowing their letters and sounds then at least 20 of the kids come into the class ready to learn how to read. Teaching them to read is pretty simple. The teacher will spend the majority of reading instruction time on the 8 kids that are still learning their letters and sounds. It's pretty rare for the entire class to enter K not knowing their letters and sounds.[/quote]
