[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Which of these standards require teachers to use phonics exclusively? [/quote] How about you show me the standards that provide for other ways to learn to read? I cannot find them. Therefore, I guess it is exclusive. [/quote] Here's a standard about sight words for K: http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/RF/K/3/c/ Here's a standard about irregularly-spelled words for 1: http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/RF/1/3/g/ Here's another one for 2: http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/RF/2/3/f/ More to the point -- the Common Core has standards for reading. Not just learning-to-read strategies; actual reading. If you, as a teacher, want a child to meet those standards for actual reading, and phonics won't work for that child, what are you going to do? Use phonics exclusively, nonetheless, because the Common Core doesn't mention any other strategy specifically (although actually the Common Core does)? [/quote]
