TOOOOT TOOOOOOOT --------yep I heard your horn blowing. Your personal achievements really have nothing to do with the OPs dilemma. word recognition and then sounding out the more difficult words is in essence what phonics is --------it can be done in song it can be done in several methods. But initially with a struggling child he needs his self esteem built up with repetitive actions.
No I showed SUCCESS over 3 generations - 4 if you count my Dad, who was my inspirition .
But you come on here with the typical liberal response.
"your just not trying hard enough/doing it right" There are some things memorization works for READING/understanding words is not one of them.
When a kid learns how to make things work on their own ie: sounding out words, the joy , excitement and motivation is priceless.
But it's easier to control those who can't think/read anything above a 4-6 grade level, which is what many schools are satisfied with. |
