Great video from the past! I grew up in the same town Lowell Thomas was raised in!! BTW...as a product of the 50's/60's curriculum, I was taught phonics!!! Not only was it introduced through our reading series (Ginn, Scott Foresman, Laidlaw...) but we had Think and Do workbooks and many, many ditto sheets made up by the teachers!!!!!!

I was born in 1955 so Renee they still had it out when I started school. I do remember filling in phonics workbook pages with letter associated with pictures.
