I have wondered the same thing myself. I began first grade in 1961. I think that we learned our phonetic background from the use of those skinny square spelling books.. I will never forget them, there was a different color for each grade level. I have since found them at yard sales and you will find the phonetic rules in the spellers. ________________________________________ From: [email protected] [[email protected]] on behalf of Ann Skiba [[email protected]] Sent: Wednesday, June 29, 2011 7:20 AM To: Karen Burnside; Mosaic: A Reading Comprehension Strategies Email Group Subject: Re: [MOSAIC] Phonics in the 50s and 60s
Heather, I'm a product of those years and probably the reason you can't find any phonics programs is most likely because we used sight reading to learn how to read with Dick and Jane!
