[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The sad part of Lucy caulkins was that she tried to equate developing a passion for reading with how to learn how to read. We teach kids math, we don’t simply expect them to develop a passion for it. [/quote] Good point about teaching phonics simply because kids benefit even if they don't love it - kind of like eating broccoli. I do have to say that the SoldaStory podcast was an eye opener regarding Lucy Calkins. Calkins herself explains her motivations. They are definitely mixed as motivations usually are...but there was a lot going on that seemed to be about HER -- not what was best for children. Listen to this segments of the story:"The Superstar" and "The Company" and "The Reckoning". https://www.apmreports.org/episode/2022/11/03/sold-a-story-e4-the-superstar. [/quote]
