Kay, Just to recap your last comments--"I would really question why direct instruction would be needed...practice, repeated readings, guided reading to scaffold, yes...but how can you make decisions for each child by following a script. Then we might as well be robots."
If you want to talk about robots that is exactly what the Read Right program is. I worked in that program for 3 years and if you want more info email me off line. I agree with you and the fact we must be teaching reading in a balanced approach. There are many avenues we must take to reach all kids.
