Re: [CTRL] PC run amok AGAIN

-Caveat Lector- Teach them about reading by having them read about diversity   That thinking is why half or more of our population are functional illiterates. Most  children have to be taught how to read. Just having them read, or reading to them, does nothing to impart the "rules" of the alphabet. All it does is heighten their sense of frustration because they can't master the art of reading and makes them feel inferior (the exact opposite of what the PC idiots say they want, which is to bolster their sense of self-esteem).Phonics is the only way to teach reading.   JR   ----- Original Message ----- From: Nessie SFBG To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, July 13, 2002 2:56 PM Subject: Re: [CTRL] PC run amok AGAIN -Caveat Lector- >by using the few hours they do have for teaching about diversity, it >takes away from hours that could be better spent teaching about >reading, That's absurd. Teach them about reading by having them read about diversity.
