[quote=Anonymous]It's dumb to forego social studies, science, art, etc, to concentrate almost exclusively on reading and math. One of the necessary skills for reading is having enough general knowledge about the world for texts in reading class to make sense and be slightly interesting. Moreover, subject interests provide motivation for reading. It's understandable why people panicked about reading progress would double-down (or triple-down) on decoding skills and phonics and what not. But DCPS should know the research.[/quote]
