Hi everyone --
Good class last night -- I appreciated all your questions and participation, especially around tough issues like funding and equity. The article that I passed out talks more deeply about the current controversy in reading instruction -- and keeps reminding me that there is no single best way of teaching reading, but an array of pedagogies and ideas that we can use in teaching our kids. What matters most is what you know and believe about how children use language, learn, and learn to read.
There is no blog post due for class tomorrow, just take a well-earned break. I will update the class wiki with a link to more information about the philosophy statement today. Let me know if there's anything else you want to know, or post.
