Re: Let's try this again
Cynic, It's funny, but when I first saw your name posting, I thought "Uh oh, this one is going to be trouble". :rollin:
Turns out you're not as cynical as all that.
I really don't know how they are teaching reading, etc. now. I know my children were taught phonics. I think they are not teaching it as much now and that is sad. My grammar formerly was so bad. I didn't realize it. My oldest daughter is an english teacher and she always was so good with grammar that when she was in high school I asked her to correct me. It really helped me a lot. I was brought up saying have went instead of have gone. All kinds of things like that. (She teaches english, second language in Wichita, so all her students are foreigners.)
