[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anyone concerned about their child not reading in k or 1st, or deciding well in 2nd or above you can easily buy quality phonics programs and teach your child yourself. Some good programs are
All About Reading 
Abecedarian
If your child just needs some review here are 10-15 minute programs that you just open a book and go:
Dancing Bears reading (a British program synthetic phonics)
Phonics Pathways

Spend 10-15 minutes every day over the summer working with your child. It will make a huge difference 
If you aren’t able to force yourself to do it and you need an external push then Kumon reading is phonics based and your child is required to do 10-15 minutes a day every day. [/quote]

That is OK for parents who realize that there is a problem..But MCPS should be providing basic high quality instruction to our students, and especially students whose parents don't have the free time to float around on these boards, buy supplemental instructions, and teach the kids themselves.

These days they have little to no time to spend with average kids even. Count yourself lucky if your kid is getting any reading instruction.[/quote]
