Peaceful Proposal: "Reading Wars" Oversimplify the Complexity of the Process.

Yatvin, Joanne

Northwest Education, v4 n1 p48,47 Fall 1998

A successful reading program is a broad-based personalized program that recognizes that reading is a mixture of various skills: phonemic awareness, grapho-phonemic correspondence, word analysis and synthesis, sight-word vocabulary, syntactic knowledge, semantic knowledge, and literary knowledge. Changes in instructional techniques are made based on assessment of student needs. (SAS)
