@Altair4_2381 @BevinRoue @CarrieLeestma @black_literacy @ehanford @natwexler @Ready4rigor @karenvaites @citizenstewart It’s also a myth that you can *teach* comprehension skills. You can teach comprehension *strategies*, but knowledge matters most for comprehension.

That’s why it’s actually best to teach knowledge-rich *content*. Don’t teach “skills”. @DTWillingham @ReadingShanahan

Questions after that New York Times article on the teaching of reading? Here are some answers. | The Thomas B. Fordham Institute https://t.co/TWHNyXoAqY

[Fordham Institute @educationgadfly]

Achieving the levels of reading that we have in the past is insufficient, writes @ReadingShanahan. If today’s boys and girls only read as well as students did a decade ago, they’re being disadvantaged. https://t.co/bWydDM9KGj

[Linda Shippy @lindashippy]

I’m an avid reader of Shanahan’s blogs. Some perspective and research and politics herein I’ve never encountered or considered about Reading First. May be worth a little conversation.
