Moats and Shaywitz are to sane and appropriate reading instruction as the fear

Hi, this is my first responce to Mosaic. I am a special education teacher
and have to teach concretely to my students. I have spent many hours and
dollars on trying to figure out the best approach to teaching phonics/word
study. I have realized that I need to teach it to my students k-8 even
old
Yes I too would like to get back to comprehension. Know some will argue
that the child has to decode words in order to comprehend. Some of us would
argue with that sequence as linear and so on. WHATEVER!!! The point of
this list is not discussing phonics. Rather we go to the "heart of the

Hi,
Regarding phonics, I had an extremely wise professor (28 years ago!!) that
said, "Phonics has a place, but not in reading."

Elisa,
I guess that sentence did imply that, but it was meant as a more generic
response to teachers who don't like teaching phonics because it's boring or
I think that reflective and knowledgeable teachers is the key to the challenges
we may encounter in the classroom. I agree that if all we do is complain and
don't have any suggestion to offer then it's not a good thing. Thanks again
for your comments.

Deirdre,
Where did you get the idea that teachers, especially on this list, don't
want to teach phonics?? If anything can be said about teachers on this
list, and other lists I belong to, is that we will do whatever we need to do
within a balanced program, can accomplish.

Jeanne,
Congratulations on all your accomplishments with your students. Just one
comment - a balanced program, as you say, includes instruction in phonics as
one of the cueing systems. They are not in opposition to each other.

Isn't it our job as teachers to teach to and for our students?
