“While it’s true that there is, sadly a debate going ok with reading instruction- your article/podcast was so limited and like so many others, missing information. First - do the author take the time to REALLY know what balanced literary is? Part of the balance in balanced literacy IS PHONICS. No one who UNDERSTOOD balanced literacy ever downplayed the role of phonics -that’s part of the balance!!!
Next, when you talk about the George Bush NRP- and the “reading first” program you failed to mentioned the data that there was no significant improvement shown by using a phonics approved on reading outcomes. No one likes to mention this fact, that statistically phonics only programs do not equate to a one size fits all, everyone reading program! That is hidden! That’s so irresponsible on the part of the reporter!
As we consider brain research, we can learn how to shift the balance and make sure our methodologies include strong phonics foundations especially at the earliest levels .but we don’t discount the other pillars needed.
This issue is so so much more complex than blaming the amount of reading problems on curriculum.”

“I get newsletters daily from 2 other major outlets but end up listening here too. As comforting and insightful as Morning Edition but short and sweet. A welcoming place.”
