[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Have you ever taught reading in a classroom situation? How do you teach phonics? What are your methods of "simply teaching the basic code, the advanced code, blending and segmenting, and then decoding polysyllabic words ?" [/quote] I teach reading all day long, every day, in a classroom situation -- but not as a classroom teacher. I am so mystified as to why classroom teachers are required to teach reading in an inefficient way. I don't understand why school districts require this, when it would be so much more simple to use small group reading time and small group intervention to just simply teach decoding. There's no mystery as to how to teach these things; the methods are out there. We just need the will to do it and to believe that this is the fundamental part of the foundations of reading instruction. [/quote]
