I did a presentation maybe 10 - 15 years ago where I compared something to a card catalog in a library, and someone came up to me afterwards to sheepishly ask what a card catalog was...

When my older kid was little, and she told me that's how she was being taught, I told her nope, do it like this: each letter has a sound. Sometimes combinations of letters have a sound all together. But you can sound out words by their letters and don't have to guess

It was transformational to her

I can't believe anyone is still teaching reading this way. And it's such a shame that more parents don't read to their children when they're little.

It was an every night thing for us.

We used to literally "hang up the phone". It wasn't just a metaphor.
