Am probably going to homeschool
I want an overview of the different methods of teaching reading
Yes I know some kids pick it up by osmosis but I need a backup plan. I'd like to at least have a feel for a. signs of readiness and b. phonics vs (is it) whole word teaching.
And what do people reckon to
The Reading Reflex?
Oh should say ds is only 3 and am not looking to start teaching reading any time soon but have just realised I have no idea about this. None at all. Not even anything to rebel against.
Vague feeling that they shouldn't learn til later but absolutely zip idea why.
Also in Steiner schools as I recall writing taught before reading? Thoughts?
