[quote=Anonymous]Back in 1993, seversl teachers were fired from Glendale Area Public Schools in CA when their principals secretly listened to them and found out they were teaching students how to sound out words. It was a no phonics/no spelling/no sight word/ only inventive spelling instruction phase. This ridiculous “methodology” lasted only a few years punishing kids who were spelling correctly. The principals who fired the teachers were promoted. It was a multi million grant for an experiment that ended up being disastrous for students and teachers who wanted to do their job. [/quote]
