Thank you @KatiePekel for inviting us to listen to @ehanford today. “What was once right when teaching reading may not be right today.” Time to unlearn what I leaned. We need to stop telling parents with struggling readers their child will be fine.
Hey all. I see people criticizing @hechingerreport for publishing that letter. Some context.

@ragobro1940@ehanford Reading to a child is wonderful but it does not teach a child (or an adult) how to read. Approximately 30% of students can learn to read with poor instruction or even no instruction. Approximately 70% need explicit, systematic instruction to learn to read well.
