Regarding the recommendations of the National Reading Panel, it might be of interest to some to read Elaine Garan's article, "Beyond the Smoke and Mirrors: A Critique of the National Reading Panel Report on Phonics" which is located at http://www.pdkintl.org/kappan/k0103gar.htm " What was once educationally significant, but difficult to measure, has been replaced by what is insignificant and easy to measure. So now we test how well we have taught what we do not value." — Art Costa, emeritus professor, California State University _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
