Thank you for stating that whole language includes phonics. As I see it,
this?debate got started by people who thought whole language meant "whole
word," not sounding out words, just memorizing the "whole" word. I can't count
the number of times I have seen that interpretation stated by the media
covering the debate.

I also like it because it is balanced between phonics and whole language styles
of teaching.
