All of this is beside the point if the school insists on making children memorize sight-words. That will short-circuit the kid a year or two, and make sure he hates reading. All the phonics experts say that children should be reading by the end of first grade. If anything close to that is happening, the kids will be all right. They will find topics they like to read about. But if they don't quickly become fluent, comfortable readers, then those children may never be fluent, comfortable readers. There is an epidemic today of adults who say they never read if they can help it. I believe this should be blamed on Whole Word. (Reading Is Easy: video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JV0tPGn-Ws)

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
